I strongly suspect it's from the original Ace edition. The Ace edition did not have it's copyright renewed. The changes in the later editions under the new title were published after renewals were no longer required. When I looked into this a few years ago Chip wanted Project Gutenberg to do the newer version. We never did get all of the paper work done though. I've got copies of both the Ace and the newer 3-in-1 volume. I've never tried to look to find out what changed though. -- Greg Weeks http://durendal.org:8080/greg/
