[edit]

This stub needs at minimum a literate rewrite, and ideally an expansion. --David Sewell 13:25, 2 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Did some spelling corrections and light cleanup. There's a lot of redundancy between these sections and, to be honest, I'm not sure why all of the sections are necessary for an entry on a book. Maybe it's just me, but surely children writing book-reports on themes can read the book for themselves? 65.87.169.2 07:25, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for not giving away the ending of the novel like the entry for Tortilla Flat does. Common sense has prevailed! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.160.121.211 (talk) 17:56, 16 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I removed a comma between rye and beer under eddie. the correct reading is rye beer, so on not rye, beer, so on. rye is not a type of alcohol. rye beer is. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 49.197.12.214 (talk) 06:06, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Breed Of Dog?

[edit]

It's been a while since I read the book, but I don't think Mack and the boys' dog, Darling, is a mongrel - I seem to remember it was a gundog of some description. Halmyre (talk) 07:12, 3 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The breed of dog is a pointer. Chapter 13 is the one where mack and the boys get drunk with the captain and his dog. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cannery34526 (talkcontribs) 22:00, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
