Courting Disasters
April 5th, 2011 Brian HerzogDuring a recent weeding, I found these two books in our collection:
At first I thought it was different editions of the same book, but then realized they were different books - different authors, publishers, and copyright dates, but same title, same photo, and very similar design. Huh.
I know that cover design is usually beyond the realm of the author, and it's unfortunate that it is always the author that comes out looking bad when something like this happens.
However, take into consideration that Courting Disaster is actually not an uncommom book title, as the phrase works on so many levels.
