Have you spotted any mistakes in Volume 4 of my books?

We're getting ready to reprint as we're down to the last box of books, and I'll use this chance to tidy up any typos, etc. I know of one correction that's needed on page 33, but please let me know if you've noticed any others.

 

Bob Tatz has published a second edition of his memoir, Lost in the Battle for Hong Kong.

 

Bookazine have a promotion this weekend offering 15% off books in their online store, including all four of Gwulo's books:
