Oh man you guys are like stealthy ninjas in your quest for LL's syntax boo-boo's, typos, flubs and misspellings along with errant mistakes...
I got so used to them over time that I've actually come to expect them and welcome them as old friends with me totally understanding of them as having been true to Louis L'Amour's "style"
Without them I'd hesitate to identify his fiction because his yonderings are not perfect but down to earth "tall-tales shared by the campfire stories".
I daresay that I kind of cherish them; although I agree I'm not against correcting/fixing some in need.
Methinks as I caught this stuff annoyed me little; because in my deepest thoughts I've always sort of looked the other way knowing at the time having properly in my minds eye fixed a gaze upon LL sitting with an old beat-up typewriter on his lap or desk hacking away at the keys feverishly attempting closure at seeing how/where the story goes.
With me always, every-time, all of the time the better customer for its resulting happiness-satisfaction in my soul's partaking of another cherished good read...nuff said
