Sam, That book just happens to be sitting next to my computer. Yeah, the stuff on the margin is a misprint, and the stuff in the notation are the tresillos being described. I guess you could play them with a P downstroke, but then they wouldn't be much different from the second tresillo, the P-up, IMA-down, P-down. The last two, PQI and PAI are both very standard triplets and definitely worth learning. I think PAI is probably the most common tresillo for most people, so you'll probably want to work on that one even if it's awkward at first. It certainly was (and still is) for me. Tresillos are the technique that I feel the least satisfied with in terms of my own progress. I feel like I've got the basic mechanics down, but they're still pretty slow and pretty clumsy. Good luck with your practicing. Adam
