I finished reading The Generals last night, Great book, hard to spot the seams where Simon jiggled real things to make the story flow. But who did the proofreading? Simon, do you want input from the Scarrowags before the paperback goes to print?
Cheers

You noticed the mistakes also then john...hehe  I would presume that Simon would be grateful for the errors so they can be corrected in future print runs. I've yet to do so so by all means compile a list

I haven't seen many errors, so far, to be honest; I've been enjoying it too much
We always have been, we are, and I hope that we always shall be, detested in France. |

to be honest when i first noticed a mistake i tried to blot all others out, i read this to enjoy it not correct it...if Simon needs the assistance though i'd happily reread it. LOL!! but i do soooo much proof reading on manuscripts this was my break...to read something without worrying about errors

| Hey ho, back to Headline we go with the typos. As ever, I'd be very grateful for a list of references to pass on. Seriously grateful. |

And I'll email a list to you, Simon, when I've reread it and made notes.
