Claire Hodges

Corrections and clarifications are a vital part of journalistic integrity, and this week's roundup includes several errors that have been amended. From a misattributed book author to a misnamed photograph and a streaming platform mix-up, here are the details.

Elizabeth Goudge and The Little White Horse

In the 31 October edition of the Saturday magazine, an article titled "The books of my life" incorrectly referred to the author of The Little White Horse as "Alison Goudge." The book was actually written by Elizabeth Goudge. This error has been corrected in our records.

The Little White Horse is a beloved children's fantasy novel, first published in 1946, and Elizabeth Goudge was a prolific British author known for her works for both children and adults. We apologize for the mistake.

John F. Kennedy Photo Caption Error

A photograph of John F. Kennedy that appeared in the 17 October issue of Saturday magazine, in an article titled "Evolution of man," was misidentified in the caption as John F. Kennedy Jr., his son. The error was in print only and has been corrected online.

We regret the confusion this may have caused. The photo was of the former U.S. president, not his son.

Pasta Recipe Spelling Mistakes

In the 24 October issue of Feast, a recipe for pasta with Senegalese-inspired ragu misspelled the names of pasta-makers Garofalo and Ducato d'Amalfi as "Garofolo" and "Ducato di Alfalfi." The correct spellings are Garofalo and Ducato d'Amalfi.

We strive for accuracy in all our recipes and apologize for these errors.

The drama The Greatest, about Muhammad Ali, was listed as being available on Netflix in the 31 October What's On section. It is actually streaming on Prime Video. This correction has been made in our streaming guide.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused viewers.
