Aaron Toponce (atoponce) | 56 comments Looking at it. One sec.

Aaron Toponce (atoponce) | 56 comments I have verified that the physical page count is indeed 831 pages, as per policy, introductions, promotional pages, copyrights, and acknowledgements, which this book contains extensively at the beginning and end of the book, is not included in the total page count.

Also, I verified that the publisher is indeed Avalon Travel and that Cameron Hewitt is a contributor.

Fixed.

Aaron Toponce (atoponce) | 56 comments I may have actually misread that help topic (I have an excuse- I'm new, but I'm doing the best I can!). According to the topic, it appears the only excluded material is:

advertisements and preview chapters for other books
and [i]ntroductory material paged using roman numerals

As such, the original 856 page count is probably the more accurate page count, even though there may be promotional material in the middle of the last dozen or so pages.

Aaron Toponce (atoponce) | 56 comments I'll leave the revised page count for now, but I would be interested in what more experienced librarians would have done in this case, and if they'll advise me to revert the page count change.
