Re: [Texascavers] book review: Huautla

[Mixon Bill]

Charles (only) -- I hold books from a publisher with commercial  
pretensions to a high standard. Signs of amateurish typesetting were  
not putting the scientific name of that scorpion in italics, using the  
wrong character in things like '78 (the left curly single quote  
instead of the right curly single quote), and using a hyphen for a  
minus sign. Of course the photos were not professionally taken, but  
that's no excuse for not optimizing their color and contrast for  
printing. There is no reason why a hard caver has to know where the  
commas go, but a publisher's editor should. -- Mixon
