Barnes and Noble Books, 2000, ISBN 0-7607-1696-X Many, many years ago, John Warry wrote this book and it is indeed a classic for it was well-illustrated and readable, in large-size, coffee-table book size. The abomination of a reprint has no illustrations and contains an excessive number of typos that ruin a good book. It leaves me wondering whether this thing was done in such a rush, they couldn't wait for it to leave the press. It's very surprising to see such a mess in a book, especially from a large publishing house. Ignore this Barnes and Noble reprint. If you want the book, find a used, older copy.
