Correction No. 1

In the March 12 review of Wild Prairie Rose and Her Friends, by Ellen McDougal, the profession of Dr. Stephen Jones is erroneously reported. He is not the coroner for the city of Santa Fe, NM, but a professor of botany at the University of Davenport, IA. The review also misrepresented the discovery of Jeannie Halloway. She discovered, not three corpses in an advanced state of decomposition, but a hitherto unknown type of wild daisy. The review also misstated the location of the discovery. The discovery was made, not in an abandoned and dangerously radioactive uranium mine, but in her back yard. The review also inaccurately described the consequence of the discovery. It led, not to the revelation by a fearless journalist of a series of grisly murders with implications reaching into the highest levels of the New Mexico state government, but to a poem about spring in the Quad-City Times. The review also mistakenly attributed meaning to the title of the book. The title refers, not to a murdered teenager and other victims, but to the state flower of Iowa and other wild flowers. We regret the errors.
