William A. Baillie-Grohman believes that in the foreword of his upcoming book Master of Game, President Roosevelt meant to say that Trajan wrote to Pliny, rather than the other way around. Two classical scholars at the British museum agree. If Grohman does not hear from Roosevelt by the 15th, he is going to make the change, as he does not have time to wait before the book goes to print. Grohman also discusses having part of Roosevelt’s foreword published in Century Magazine to promote the book in the United States.
