I have the Collectors Guide to Clive Cussler but not this one. I think this book is aimed at accurately identifying all the different editions so Cussler collectors know whats out there and what to look for. Maybe someone that has one can elaborate more.

I have it, and I believe the cover price is $23.00, but I'll have to check. I received mine as a gift with signature.
The one on ebay is signed so I think that a couple extra bucks for the signature is worth it! th:

This is really a great book, I ordered it through Bruce back in November and I sent him an email 2 weeks ago wondering if he'd received my payment. Evidently there was a mix up and Paypal forgot to send him a confirmation of my payment. So along with the book Bruce sent me 2 pens from the CC Convention, Dirk Pitt and Doxa Watch book and an 8x10 picture of Clive and Paul together which they signed, I nearly fainted. I sent Bruce an email back thanking him a hundred times over, he was wonderful and now Clive and Paul just smile at me when I'm typing on the computer. :)
