It looks like the second was created due to the author's name.

I made them both "Mrs. C!" but I'm not happy about it. Any other librarian who wants to take a look may have other ideas.

Necmi Çoban | 1252 comments Hello,
Zaman Bekçisi -"Zamanın Ötesinde" İkinci Kitap must be an edition of Timekeeper
And the name of the book should be Zaman Bekçisi (Zamanın Ötesinde, #2) as original one is Timekeeper (Timeless, #2).
Please correct it.
Thank you

Looks like all are different editions of the same book.
Someone familiar with the works will be able to handle those better.

312 - working on this. Mark Antony compiled and edited the letters and wrote the biography. Strippel compiled the bibliography and doesn't appear to be credited on volume 1 on the original work, only volume 2 and the complete volume.

I'll sort them.
In case anyone wants to know:
*Stipplel is not credited on the original volume 1. Bibliographers aren't typically credited at all, but his work is about 30 pages worth, and was previously published as a stand alone product by the New York Public Library, so I left him listed on the works he was credited with from the reprint publishers.

* There was a listed volume 3 and a volume 4 - they were 3rd and 4th printing replicas, there were never more than 2 volumes. I changed the title, and noted on the edition field that they were replicas of printings not volumes.

* there are tons of discrepancies in the Editor's name, particularly the "de wolfe' vs "dewolfe" [to space or not to space, that is the question]. I could't get LOC to open this morning, so I don't know how they list him. Worldcat uses both. I made them all "dewolfe" and noted the difference in his description. I looked at the replicas of the original works. He is listed on most of them clearly with no space. some of them are ambiguous. Harvard Library as well as wikipedia use the space. BUT - his family did not use the space, [on his tombstone, and in letters] and the Pulitzer committee did not use the space. So I went with them. No space. He is listed with at least 6 different variations of his name in lots of places. They are listed them in Howe's bio.

The subject of George Bancroft has interested me, so I got into this a little deeper than usual...

all that to say: 312 is done
