Editing funny

In working through the bibliography of books you sometimes run into funny things. This one shows that people are quite ignorant of Latin:

Cross, Frank Moore, Werner E. Lemke, and Patrick D. Miller, eds. Magnolia Dei: The Mighty Acts of God; Essays on the Bible and Archaeology in Memory of G. Ernest Wright. Garden City, NY: Doubleday, 1976.

See the problem? I don't think the book is about magnolias! The correct spelling is Magnalia. But, the incorrect spelling shows up all over the place; it's even on JSTOR and de Gruyter's site!
