Amazon lists it at 412 pages.
Thanks

I own an audio edition of the book that I would like to use for the upcoming Winter Challenge, but challenge rules stipulate that the top MMPB will be used to establish length. 0 pages doesn't cut it. :-(

Worldcat says 381. I added that, since Worldcat is the GR preferred source of page counts.

Unfortunately the ISBN is not listed with Worldcat, Fawcett (the publishing company is no longer in business) and Amazon resellers do not list page counts.

If the top MMPB does not have page numbers use the next record
The Unexpected Mrs. Pollifax

Amazon lists 282 pages. It also sells an audiobook version that isn't listed on GR, so could that be added as well?

I checked Worldcat for this ISBN and it was listed as an ebook. I also checked Worldcat for other editions by this publisher and the page count varied from 224 to 256. So...I went to the publisher. There this ISBN is listed as a paperback with 230 pages. That is the page count I used.

Thanks.
230 pages is fine. I have the Kindle edition so wanted to make sure the paperback had a page count when I get around to reading and posting.

The book Ghosts and Grisly Things is a collection of stories by the single author Ramsey Campbell. He is listed as an editor on the book's homepage, not as the sole author.
Here is the wiki page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghosts_...

I listened to the CD book. It's fine for 195. I just needed a page count.

Added pagination from WorldCat. DONE


The Contents page has:
INTRODUCTION by Rudy Wurlitzer with Ed Harris and William Walker (page 1)
A CONVERSATION WITH ALEX COX AND RUDY WURLITZER (page 17)
THE WORLD AND WILLIAM WALKER by Albert Z. Carr (page 63)
The Copyright page says "The World and William Walker" on pages 63-270 is an abridgment of the book of the same name originally published in 1963 by Harper & Row, Publishers.
I'm not sure if Alex Cox should also be added.
Also, please add description:
This is a tie-in to the 1987 movie "Walker" containing an interview with the writer and director as well as an abridged version of The World and William Walker.

Worldcat and my book on hand both have 492 pages. (This is the hardcover edition. I don't know if the paperback is correct or not.)

Bea, Is there something that I can do to help with this?
The cover on the one that is set up as Samuel Wright says S. Fowler Wright. Neither Amazon nor WorldCat list Samuel Wright for this book, so I don't know where GR got that name. The author description for S. Fowler Wright says his first name is Sydney (not Samuel).

Julia, GR is not allowing the author change to be made. It is probably a temporary glitch. Until that can be done, the books will not be able to be combined.
EDIT: I just checked the Librarian Group and found that combine and other edit functions are down. Once they are back up and operative, your request can be completed.

Hi, just wanted to ask for this one again - I think it's been missed. Thank you!
