Speaking of "Binocular Astronomy", which I purchased many years ago (after reading Alan MacRobert's high praise): In almost every catalog or ad I've seen for that book, it's listed as being something like 224 pages; but if you count every page including the covers, the real count is something like 186 pages.
That's not the problem: the problem is, just try calling one of the places running the ads and getting them to correct it! I called Orion and Sky Pub several times, but the ads kept listing the wrong page count. Oh well. It's a great book, no matter how many pages it has. But I can't help but wonder where that other count came from.
