- Notes:
- WorldCat lists this as [1968], i.e. copyright 1968 but not necessarily published then. Amazon lists this as "First Edition", implying "Stated first edition", which would imply that it is 1968. Copyright page says "First published in Great Britain by Blackie & Son, Ltd; Published in the United States, 1968, by Funk & Wagnalls", implying that the Blackie edition came first. The verifier's copy is signed by the author and dated 1968, so that is a true publication date, not just a copyright date. The dust jacket has the code "0812", but it's unclear if this implies a publication date.
- Interior art consists of 9 full page sketches. The interior art is credited twice. The cover artist is uncredited, but the style is fairly clearly in the same style as the interior art, so we assume it was by the same artist.
- Data from verifier copy, Amazon, WorldCat, and the National Library of Australia.
