Bewildering Error

I found something strange in a book I'm reading about Teedie Roosevelt. A large geographic error. They had  a paragraph about Iceland where it shoulda been Scotland or Northern England. Weird. and made twice. It was something unusual and kind of frustrates me. I wonder why. My research on the google shows nothing.

Also, I've been listening to the Drawing of Three, by Stephen King. I nearly gave up on it, but I find it really good. Rather inspiring.
