  • Format:
    hc?Hardcover. Used for all hardbacks of any size.
  • Type: NOVEL
  • Notes:
      1st US ed., 1st ed. this title Undated evidently The UK ed. was published as The Bodach in 1970, so dated.
    • Library of Congress (LCCN, below) states "[1970]" (publication year inferred, not stated) and gives no ISBN. The record was created in 1979. ISBN is not expected for Harper & Row in 1970, is expected soon after.
    • Publication date as 1970-09-01 from starred review by Kirkus (undated online, contemporary).
    • Price from review by Jane Yolen 1970-11-08, Chi. Tribune pQ8 and Was. Post p8 (positive). That is the earliest item found 2017-05-15 in automated search of newspapers.
    • Cover image from Amazon UK/US 2018-07-31 as "Hardcover – 1970", Harper & Row, 1st US ed., ISBN 0785784098. ISBN 0-7857-8409-8 not found in LC or WorldCat records. ISFDB records show that "0-7857" is out of place in 1970 and for any Harper publisher/imprint.
    • Cover illustration matches that of the 1973 Harper Trophy ed. (see), relying on the images from Amazon.
    • WorldCat library record OCLC 241988 states "Harper & Row", "[1970]" (inferred, not stated), and ISBN 0064400344. Probably that is a record of the 1973 Harper Trophy ed. (undated, uncertain printing), although it does not indicate a Trophy series or imprint.
    • OCLC 887218776 reports the Harper Crest Library edition (HarperCrest is the known library imprint of Harper & Row) as "[1970] (c)1970", no ISBN. That WorldCat record is listed below as it inspires greatest confidence regarding the 1st US ed. in trade hardcover format as well.
    • OCLC 993149720 and OCLC 1016501610 state "Harper, 1970", which should mean stated, not inferred. They are too meager to be accepted as evidence on any point (no ISBN, short name of illustrator), and may also report copies of the library format.
