This is supposed to be a historical novel, though I can't remember which title. Seems like many other people have also added it as such, and now it's something completely different.

EDIT: It's likely supposed to be Tirant the White, a chivalric romance from the the 15th century.

Whoa!! This looks seriously messy. Calling all Super-librarians....

Amanda | 2442 comments Looks like a reused ISBN:

Here is the World Cat entry for Tirant the White:
http://www.worldcat.org/title/tirant-...

And here is the Amazon entry for Who's In Charge?:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1843...

Amazon has the same Author/Publisher as the Worldcat entry for Tirant the White.

I did find an entry for Who's in Charge? in Worldcat:
http://www.worldcat.org/title/whos-in...

Notice the Worldcat entry has no ISBN.

Looks like Ingram overwrote the original entry.

Amanda | 2442 comments I reverted the changes from Ingram, resetting it back to Tirant the White. I couldn't find a description for the book, but everything else now matches Worldcat.

I have also added an entry for the Who's in Charge book.
