Log entries are not stored by username, so retrieving them by username
would be prohibitively expensive on the server.

What portion of the book gives you the impression that this can be
done? The --username option is global to all svn commands and is used
to specify the username to send for authenticating to the server.

If you need all entries for a single person, you'll need to parse the
output of svn log. The XML output can make this easier, as you can
write a simple XSLT stylesheet to do it.
