Query: Interesting and, yes, slapdash

For readers who have a passing knowledge of Lewis and Clark, Aaron Burr and even Zebulon Pike, this book provides interesting insight into American political life prior to the War of 1812. The ironic, speculative style will also be appealing to many. In this regard, the conclusion, a succinct muse on the significance of these actors in American history, is provocative.Here's the problem: even a nonspecialist reader like myself recognizes errors. I read the 2000 paperback edition and noted these mistakes: a reference to Burr's duel with "Madison" (pg. 216); a reference to Andrew Jackson's election in "1820", not 1828 (pg. 250); and mention of one of Burr's court hearings in Tennessee when they actually occurred in other states (pg. 280). This type of carelessness is disconcerting.
