The following ISBN brings up two records for Edward William Bok's "A Man
from Maine": 0974290416

One of these records(b11394572) is owned by cam, fml, hus, lpl, lud, mhs,
mca, pit, rkd, rpl, sjc, uni, and wpl.  This record has a pub date of 1923,
and the following pagination in the physical description: xv, 278 p.

The second record (b24167356), is owned only by mhs.  It has the following
info:

Bok, Edward William,1863-1930.
A man from Maine /by Edward W. Bok ; with a new introduction by Jonathan A.
Shaw.
Bradenton, Florida :Osprey Classics,2003.
xv, 278 p. : ill. ; 21 cm.
Originally published: New York : C. Scribner's Sons, 1923.

The second record is an identical match for the paperback book I have in
hand (a re-publication of the original, though not an exact reprint), BUT
the book I have has x introductory pages (a new forward, plus prefatory info
from the original) and just 148 pages of text.  It's 18cm--clearly different
from the original.

Could cam, fml, hus, lpl, lud, mhs, mca, pit, rkd, rpl, sjc, uni, and wpl
please check their physical copies to verify pagination?

Thanks--

Sudie
