Delight in other people's errors never dates, and this little book from 1893 is a fount of human folly that remains a joy to read. Citing examples from historians, misguided schoolboys and everyday conversation, the librarian and scholar Henry Benjamin Wheatley (1838–1917) looks at comic misprints and linguistic misunderstandings.
