For this new edition, the author has revised the pledge and the first two paragraphs of the foreword.
The final quotation is now from John Philpot Curran - Eternal Vigilance is the Price of Liberty - instead of FDR's - The Heart of This Nation Is Sound, to reflect the ebbing of wartime passions.
The paper is a little thinner and the binding cloth is more washable. The dust jacket is unchanged.
