Cometary Encounters

Apologies if this is the incorrect place for this. Admittedly I have trouble navigating the forum.

I'm reading Cometary Encounters. There's a mistake made on page 135. Aniakchak is written to be above 45 degree latitude and therefore in the northern hemisphere. Previous pages mention that the volcano is in Alaska. If the book goes to reprint this should be corrected.

I don't understand exactly what is incorrect, all of those statements are correct.

Since when is Alaska in the northern hemisphere

For whatever reason I had ANTARCTICA in my head and not Alaska. I told myself I wasn't in the mindset to be reading but I had nothing better to do and I wasn't focused; clearly

Wondered if you'd mistaken place names!

Yeah that's entirely embarrassing. I should have put the book down and looked at it later, maybe it would have clicked.
