1970: Second Edition. The book is as the first edition, but the dustwrapper is reproduced in a strange blend of orange and green. 1972: Third Edition. Again, as the first, but this time with a new dustwrapper which is in the same style as the later editions of others in the Marston Baines series. Boring artwork but an improvement on the atrocity of the second printing ! [For information on these editions, thanks to Mike McGarry]
