I had a pang for moghul cooking and went on to search this book-

Moghul Cooking: India's Courtly Cuisine (Paperback, 1997)

Author: Joyce Westrip

I found it has 2 editions : 1997

and 2005

The 1997 edition costs around $150

and the 2005 one costs - $12

Why is there such a difference in price.

WHats the difference between the two?

Are the recipes different?

would appreciate a reply

Thanks

Sam

Jeez, I rushed to my book case and yes I have a pristine 1997 edition. I am going to wrap it in cotton wool. I don't see how there can be a difference in content. Same publisher, same number of pages,

Possibly the one listed at $150. is signed.

abebooks has several listed for much less - the '97 edition. Two sellers have it listed for 130 and 197.

"There are, it has been said, two types of people in the world. There are those who say: this glass is half full. And then there are those who say: this glass is half empty. The world belongs, however, to those who can look at the glass and say: What's up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse me? This is my glass? I don't think so. My glass was full! And it was a bigger glass!" Terry Pratchett
