Another page numbering issue with a Penguin Little Black Classic

[Daniel]

Once again, a book in this series is listed as having 64 pages when, in fact, it has fewer. This one has just 56.

Here are the ISBN #s:

0141398299 (ISBN13: 9780141398297)

WorldCat agrees (55 + 1), done.

64 is the pre-publication page count estimate, just like 224 and 256 are common estimates. Unfortunately these estimates are being imported to GR, pretending to be the actual page count.

Thank you for providing the actual page count.

You are most welcome.

I have been sending in a lot of corrections for this series--and expect to send it a few more and I want to have read all the books in the box(ed set) by the end of the year.

All the best,

Because they are all multiples of 16, and books are bound in 16-page bundles (or occasionally in bundles of 32 or 8).
