His book was good, but the typos were horrible

I did think Bischoff's book was an interesting read, but the grammatical errors were horrible! For instance, in the same paragraph, he calls the Steiner Brothers the Sterners, and the Stermners. It may be a trivial concern, but his book is full of typos. I find that really annoying, because it serves as a distraction from the main story. It's like trying to play the piano, and you see dirt underneath your nails. It's distracting to what you're doing. I hope that future copies of his book have these problems fixed, because it was quite good otherwise.

Wow, it's shocking Vince let the book get published like that. I'd like to know who the editor is so I can avoid him/her at all costs in the future.
I'm surprised Bisch/Vince/Steph/Shane/Linda/HHH didn't read through it before it was sent for final printing. It's very unlike Titan to let a product that sloppy go out. Reflects badly on them as a company/family.
Though I still plan on reading the book soon I'm glad you sent out the warning about the typos (as I'm sure this one is). It would have really pissed me off if I'd found out about it first hand.
It's one thing for an email or message board message to have typos of that sort, but to let a book get published like that is preposterous!
