It has been brought to my attention by a number of people that the prior version of The Book List had 777 books, not 778 as claimed. I blame my spreadhseet and the need for a header row that I forgot to calculate out. Regardless, it could be chalked up in history as an Everest-style rounding. Who would believe that there were exactly 777 books once I had compiled everyone's submissions? Luckily, 1,041 is a number that fails to carry any special significance. And what's more, it's accurate!
