[MinervaCats] Conflicting subtitles in bibs

Ellen and all,

A patron requested the book Three Cups of Tea today and I noticed a 
difference in the subtitles between the 2 MARC records for the book. 
b22456818 states the subtitle "one man's mission to fight terrorism and 
build nations--one school at a time"  This is for the Viking c2006 
edition. b24181390 states the subtitle "one man's mission to promote 
peace--one school at a time" and this one appears to be the more 
"official" title, and the bib is for the Viking Penguin paperback 
edition, c2007.  Perhaps the first bib was pre-pub?

Anyway, it confused me when I was looking for the book (and the patron 
knew only the "Three cups of tea"  part of the title), so I thought I 
would point out the difference.  We don't own a copy of the book here 
at Gray, so I couldn't check the "chief source of information", but I 
did look at the book website and on Amazon to confirm the favored 
subtitle. Or maybe the subtitle isn't that important?
