Another "Anatomy of the Ship" question - but this book appears to still be in print and widely available, unlike the USS Sullivans one, so I'm looking to buy a copy.
There appear to be two different editions of the AotS:HMS Belfast book on Amazon.co.uk, one (only available from second-hand sellers) significantly cheaper than the other and titled "Anatomy of the Ship S." According to Amazon, this has 96 pages whilst the more expensive, new book has 120.
Is there any actual difference between the editions? I am very interested in buying this book (as reference for my 1/200 scratchbuilt model) but want to make sure I am getting the right book. The plans of the ship (and its fittings and armament) are the most important part in this respect, so if there is any difference between the two books, are the plans the same?
Apologies if this is a stupid question - I just want to make sure I don't end up buying the wrong book.
