Fix the title of the Burner citation from "Herbert Hoover: The Public Life" to "Herbert Hoover: A Public Life" Some sources such as [1] show the title as "The Public Life", but the book image clearly shows "A Public Life".
The new citation would be:
- Burner, David (1996) [1979]. Herbert Hoover: A Public Life. Easton Press. Originally published as Burner, David (1979). Herbert Hoover: A Public Life. Knopf Doubleday. ISBN 978-0-394-46134-2. GrapesRock (talk) 17:59, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
