I hope they do a better job than Houghton Mifflin did with "Silent Spring" by Rachel Carson. Amazon had it as a featured Earth Day special for kindle a few years back. I had never read it and had been hoping it would be available as an ebook, so I got a copy from Amazon.

It had quite a few OCR errors, including 9 instances of "pan" or "pans" for part or parts, usually in the phrase "parts per million", which was puzzling and first, then very grating.
