the original book ran out but when the author tried to contact the printer for a reprint they said "Oh we didn't hear from you so we threw all the negatives away" so since he had returned many of the photos to the original donaters, he was forced to reshoot the old book to become the new edition with some resultant fall off in quality. Still the new version looks good and many can't tell the differance. Lesson No. 1 in publishing: Never trust a printer to save somthing for you!
