Katy (katyas-69) | 497 comments When I just went to Richard Long's page, I noticed that there are 3 editions of The Book of Paul, and a book called Richard Long (which I just linked there for your convenience). Upon looking at that, based upon the review (which I also saw at Amazon, which is how I know this), this book is ALSO The Book of Paul. So, it needs to be fixed up, and all the editions combined. All editions of this book have the same cover as far as I can tell, if you can fix that? Thanks!!

Rinou | 101 comments Worldcat says that there is a book named Richard Long about the artist, not the writer (though here the publisher is for The book of Paul). But there is a review that seems to refer to The book of Paul, so I'll let a super librarian decide what to do.

Yes, that review is for The Book of Paul. You can find it on Amazon.com. My guess is the person who wrote the review "created" the book, forgot the title, and just used the author's name. Hopefully a super librarian can sort it out :-) Thanks for looking that up!

Rinou | 101 comments So I looked a little more at it, and found from the author's site that this book is only available in paperback, kindle, and nook.
So I combined all the 5 editions found on GR, then deleted the 2 which had no informations and no reviews, and changed the title of the 3rd from Richard Long to The book of Paul.

Katy (katyas-69) | 497 comments Thanks so much! I think this happens a lot when people have trouble finding the book by, say, misspelling the title or author name or something.
