Edition
This book was first published in July 1953, and a second edition was published in November 1960. There was a reprint in the 1970s (printed on glossy paper and with an ISBN on the back cover), but this reverted to the first edition. Various corrections and additional information that were in the second edition are thus lacking from the reprint. The list of titles inside the front cover for the reprint states "Published July 1953. Second Edition November 1960." but this is misleading. A simple method for identifying the edition is to look at the summary table for the "King" class. In the first edition, this is on page H21 and lacks a column for fitment of double chimney; in the second edition, this is on page H22 and there is a column for double chimney fitment.

The edition parameter is used to set appropriate values for five of the parameters passed to. Valid values are 1st or 2nd If this parameter is not set, those five items are not shown.
