I'm getting e-mail notices that there is a new edition of COTW out. My question is, if anyone has purchased it, are the errors in the original corrected?
i.e. is it worth the investment?

I think any errors in the original 1903 edition were corrected long ago by Jack London himself!

Don't know about the new edition but the 8th edition had quite a few errors.

Which edition of Cartridges Of The World?

I have the 11th, 12th, and 13th editions. I just wait until the new editions come out and buy the old ones at a reduced price here, they will keep cutting the price until they are all gone:

There used to be an online searchable Cartridges of the World site, but I lost the book mark in one of my PC melt downs.

Anyone know of such a site thats still available?
