Has anyone actually read this new book or are we dismissing it based on some very bad photos posted on a web site. Wasn't Sop's Arm the same location Farley Mowatt suggested was Leaf's landing?

"In addition to telling an amazing story, this book contains incredible illustrations, maps and diagrams by some amazing artists, pictures of two incredible artifacts and selections from the ancient Sagas themselves."
