> I've _never_ read an ebook w/o finding at least one typo
This is unacceptable. Typo's are not just aggravating but as they accumulate they begin to veer towards mutating the authors original intent.

Don't get me started on the typos in Lost Art Press's _Virtuoso: The Tool Cabinet and Workbench of Henry O. Studley_ --- they mis-spelled the subject's name on the inside cover and duplicated one photo, so a pair of flat pliers is shown twice and there is not detail photo of the iconic twin pair of jeweler's pliers, and didn't do a "cancel" reprinting that page as any reputable publisher would.
I am not familiar with those books or their content but that definitely reads as if the intent has been substantially changed. A typo 100 years ago might have been a letter off in the type setter; the typos these days are rewrites!
There are so many, that I've come to assume that the wrong set of files was used for printing.
