The ISBN pulled this up. But a lot of the information is different.

I cannot find this edition anywhere. Probably because it's an Arabic edition.

There are some duplicates in the books due to previous librarian edits, I posted those to the right thread.

I too tried to look for the covers of those books that you state that cover couldn't be found and there was no luck for me, especially since the isbn are honestly odd...

Done....

I left those that I could not find covers for

Also https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... is an alternative cover edition (they share the same ISBN) of https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
There are major editing conflicts surrounding this edition, I asked another superlibrarian for help and I'll do something about it based on what she thinks.

Stock image/placeholder image... I think another librarian explained why one should leave it blank instead of using this image.


Joshua (rafkajosh) | 99 comments Thank you. A lot of these are missing ISBNs/ASINs

That's a Norton Critical Edition with a bad ISBN, which most likely means there is another edition with the correct ISBN which probably has a cover. They need to be merged.


Joshua (rafkajosh) | 99 comments I think the entire set of editions needs to be looked at. It seems to be a mess. Definitely worse than the Dhammapada. I'll just use this thread for any issues I find for these editions.

I think I'm going to start any future threads like this in the book issues thread and just work on all the editions in order.

Joshua (rafkajosh) | 99 comments For now I'll just continue through the one's that are missing covers. Then I'm going to look for ones that have covers but no ISBN/ASIN.

If everything from my previous posts have been looked at I'll post a new set.


Joshua (rafkajosh) | 99 comments Heres some more. Where could I post a thread about all of the arabic/persian ones? I can't tell the difference and I'm not sure how to find them. I can't believe none of them are available.

The Epic of Gilgamesh
No ISBN/ASIN

Gilgamesh
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1852...
http://www.worldcat.org/title/gilgame...
I think it should be the cover when you click Look Inside on Amazon. It might be in one of the Libraries listed on Worldcat too.

Epopea di Gilgamesh

Ep o Gilgamešu
Can't find a cover for this publication year. Also, does anyone know what the part in parentheses says?

Joshua (rafkajosh) | 99 comments I've noticed the description for almost all of these is for the exact same edition. Where would I post to get those fixed?

Gilgames
Can't find a cover.

Gilgamesh: A Verse Narrative

This is a duplicate of the one above.
