EDIT: Here it is:

I picked the cover from the 1970 edition based on your description, hope it's the same for yours.

We use ASIN's for Kindle editions, never for paperbacks. The ASIN you used is from an used book that is resold via Amazon but it is not a Kindle edition.
See: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
I merged the records.

I didn't know about the ASIN, but OK, I'll remember it for next time.
Concerning the merging, based on Amazon (not sure it's the best of sources, but that's all I have), there are about a dozens of editions for this book. There was one published almost every year starting from 1969, all named differently. There a 9th printing, a 10th printing, etc.
So I am not sure these books should have been merged.
The one I picked was the 1976, 10th printing as mentionned by Jack, which is not here anymore.
Here it is on Amazon:

Actually, I suppose that if we want to be really thorough, we should add all those editions? Or are they considered the same, and we shouldn't do it?
