Sarah Michelle | 4 comments Hello! What information is needed to add a missing edition of a book? I have a 1986 Penguin Classics edition of Moby Dick and just scrolled through 7,300+ editions on GR and didn’t see it.

Thanks!

When searching for specific editions it's usually easier to search by ISBN :)

Sarah Michelle | 4 comments Yeah…searching by the ISBN did nothing but bring me to 7000+ editions. I tried the ISBN first thing :-)

Sarah Michelle | 4 comments Ok…I tried searching by ISBN again and it brings me to the 1972 publication but the edition I have is a 1986 reprinting with a different cover. I can find no links on Penguin’s site on this edition. I mean, should I just give up?

ERI ES (itsakirex) | 4245 comments There are many good sources for information. Please read: https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/...

I found book data here: https://search.worldcat.org/es/title/...

For cover: link AND ISBN must be clearly visible or you can upload the photo/scan of YOUR edition.
