And when there is a spark of interest in the book, for example, when elephants are used to carry war supplies, McMullen simply glosses over it and decides to give us the low-down on a make of rifle, for instance. What a wasted opportunity I thought. And finally, the book is littered with spelling and punctuation mistakes and also words will suddenly appear in capital letters for no reason. Another example of this book's sloppy writing/editing is when a P & O liner is described as a boat. I winced. She's called a ship, I heard myself shouting at the computer. I could go on, but I won't. Simply, one of the worst books I've read recently.
