i find this a frequent problem on the Amazon site when the book is a classic. The book cover/edition displayed is not the actual download. It is very annoying bc with a classic that has been translated one usually wants a specific translation.

I was disappointed that the book cover disdplayed was not the actual download. I see the translator for the download is Ormsby, but I wanted the version translated recently by Grossman (pictured), which is said to be the definitive one. I guess I'll have to download from a pay site or wait until the Grossman copyright becomes out of date!
