Actually, if you want to be accurate, two, maybe three words in this
passage are misspelled.   It should be "reign" ("rein" is what you
use to control a horse), my spellchecker suggests two "n"s in
"Millennium" (although I will admit different sources prefer different
spellings), and "renaissance".

And "embarrassed".

Agreed.  Just in the passages you quoted, DB, there are many
many more misspelled words than the ones you've flagged.  And
also "right wrong words", like "rein" above, which will pass a
spellcheck with flying colors.   A traditional proofread is
definitely needed here.
