FWIW, I agree with Josh. Roy's list of errors are easily explained as Wolfe
nodding, IMO. Go through any series of large books by anybody, and you'll
probably find the same. I'm reading Trollope at the moment - a similar
effort for his body of work would probably fill a volume the size of one of
his big, fat novels.
