SOLVED. Early 70s Sci Fi: on a space ship flight that was designed to last many many generations; everything is like a jungle so many of the people are no longer full size [s]

This sci fi book takes place on a space ship flight that was designed to last many many generation. As you read it you don't know its on a space ship, everything is like a jungle so many be the people are no longer full size (I can't remember) it isn't till they find a location that they see outside of the ship that you know what is going on. The book is similar to "Hull Zero Three" but it is not that book

Eric, how far into the book do you clearly realize it's a spaceship? Is this a spoiler? Spoilers are okay (but not in the topic header) - we just need a clear warning before revealing a spoiler in this group.

Sounds similar to this search: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... which turned out to be The Star Seekers by Milton Lesser

Aren't both threads' titles spoilers?

There are quite a few examples of generation ships but this sounds as if it could be Non-Stop.

That is the story I was looking for, when I read it years ago it was called "Starship" when I ordered this one just a couple of hours ago it explained the name had been changed but the first chapter let me know it is the book I was looking for Thank You So Much Andy

Yes that's right - the name was changed at some point. Glad you found it!
