Geoffrey (jeff_readsalot) | 267 comments Hi!

Would it be possible to add a page number to the paperback edition of "The Book of Trespass" by Nick Hayes (ISBN: 9781526604729) please as it seems to be missing?

Amazon has it at 464p.
https://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/1526...

Thanks in advance!

Hi Geoffrey

World Cat (our preferred source for confirming page counts) has this one at 443 pages. Can you tell me what is on pages 444-464? Some things we count & some things we don't.

Geoffrey (jeff_readsalot) | 267 comments Oh I never thought of checking Worldcat, I'm so sorry. I'm afraid I won't have a physical copy of the book before Monday so I can't be of any help as to the content. I simply noticed the number of pages was missing earlier, perhaps I was a bit hasty in putting in a request.

For what it's worth, the editor's website has also the number of pages at 464p (link below). Could Worldcat be referencing a different edition as there seems to be 4 different ISBNs listed on their page and they redirect to the hardcover edition on Amazon.com?

Monday is fine.

The site just gives two different ISBN10/ISBN13s & it is showing this cover.

World Cat is generally (not always) the closest to Goodreads in what information they consider important as the information is added by real life librarians.

Geoffrey (jeff_readsalot) | 267 comments All right then, I'll check back on Monday, I apologize for the inconvenience

Geoffrey (jeff_readsalot) | 267 comments Hi there! I've unexpectedly received the book early so hopefully I will be able to be of more help today.

There are 12 pages at the start before page 1 with the usual information (copyrights, title & author, table of content and of illustrations). Book ends at page 387. There follows a few illustrations and a page listing some additional
reading info. That is followed by some acknowledgements page 393-94, by some notes on the text page 395-429 and by an index pages 431-443. There are a few blank pages as well here and there
