I'll get to work on it.
For msbelle (and others who love pink) [link]
but when a history textbook gets a historical fact wrong, I (as a hypothetical student) would think, "well, why should I even do the assigned reading from this book if I can't count on it?"
That's your job as a teacher -- to teach kids that every book is going to have wrong/biased/missing stuff, and that's why they need to read more than one book.
How else are they going to learn the moon landing was faked?
This is what I'm saying.

Is that really going to work, though? I mean, in college, or even if it's something they're doing a report on, sure, but every week for homework in their social studies class?
Eh, it's not like they meant to get it wrong, and I assume they probably corrected it in later editions. It's particularly bothersome because it not just gets it wrong, it makes a point with it. Anyway, I suppose such a teacher would be familiar enough with the material to know when there's a problem with the text.
Fortunately, I'm not gonna teach history. Thank God.

I just meant in principle, not that they should fact-check every line of every textbook. It would be more like a head's up.
