truepennyIs a database like the invaluable IMDb, only for books.
Original publication information, reprints, later editions ... so that, as a completely random example, if I were to want to know when Patricia Highsmith's The Talented Mr. Ripley was first published, I could simply go find out, rather than have to wade through the efforts of a site like HugeSouthAmericanRiver.com to sell me what's available now.
Is there such a site out there? As free and readily accessible as the IMDb? Anybody know?
