Interesting, the first 50 or so pages on what the wise thought of the wind through history. He is not as detail oriented as I would like, in my neck of the woods he made two quasi-errors, calling my local mountain pass San Gorgonia (it's Gorgonio), and saying that 30 degrees north latitude is about at northern California, more or less (5-plus degrees off is more than "more or less). He could use a good editor beyond spell-check, he used the wrong kind of to/two/too, which even a 1st grade teacher can catch.
