message 1: by Stephen (new)

Stephen Goldin (stephengoldin) | 2 comments In the 1970s I wrote a relatively thick book called Scavenger Hunt, but the publisher wouldn't publish it as a single volume. I had to split it into 2 parts, and it was published as Scavenger Hunt and Finish line.

Recently I've had it republished back in its original 1-volume form as Scavenger Hunt again, both as a paperback and an ebook. (Neither edition is currently listed in GR. The new paperback has its own ISBN.) I want to add the new edition/title, but how do I make sure people won't confuse it with Part 1 of the old set?

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments Stephen, the best way to prevent confusion would be to add this to the description of each book (for readers) and also to add a librarian's note to at least one edition of each book (so that other librarians won't come along and combine them).
