If Kenneth O. Hanson's [The Uncorrected World] is like anything else, it is like Kenneth Hanson's old book [The Distance Anywhere]…. The earlier book was full of weather, Greek geography, and lines the length and texture of blackboard chalk. The Uncorrected World is the same world, uninterrupted courses of weather, Greek geography, and lines that squeak like chalk. The book is as disappointing as too long a ride, and as annoying as a stutter. Mr. Hanson's [second] book may have interest for those who have not read his first. But the first remains more worthwhile, and the second seems painfully secondary. (p. 370)
