    This hits close to home.<p>When Grayson&#x27;s _Traditional Archery from Six Continents_ <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.goodreads.com&#x2F;book&#x2F;show&#x2F;1662236.Traditional_Archery_from_Six_Continents" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.goodreads.com&#x2F;book&#x2F;show&#x2F;1662236.Traditional_Arch...</a> went out of print, I actually found it more palatable to buy the rights and re-print it.<p>Since then, I attempted that with Tolkien&#x27;s _Old English Exodus_ but was rebuffed on the grounds that I was a &quot;Tolkien Nut&quot; and not an academic --- that text has since been reprinted by Harper Collins in a #2 box set, which I anxiously pre-ordered and waited for, only to find that from the Select Bibliography to then end of the re-set poem (22 pages) there were almost as many typos (20) on a quick first reading:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;old.reddit.com&#x2F;r&#x2F;OldEnglish&#x2F;comments&#x2F;1vyly9o&#x2F;could_someone_check_if_the_following_are_typos_in&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;old.reddit.com&#x2F;r&#x2F;OldEnglish&#x2F;comments&#x2F;1vyly9o&#x2F;could_s...</a><p>really wish all authors did as DEK and offered a bounty on typos... I could use a check for $51.20 even if it wouldn&#x27;t fully offset the cost of the boxed set (though arguably, I should sell the other 4 books as dupes of texts I already own).
