This is the full and detailed views of the second printing of the Book-of-the-Month Club edition of The Joe Leaphorn Mysteries: Three Classic Hillerman Mysteries Featuring Lt. Joe Leaphorn. The major differences between this version and the earlier version is that this edition is hardback and, while the cover photograph is the same, the colors in the photo have been changed to more muted tans and oatmeals. This edition was published in 1989 by Book-of-the-Month Club INC. in New York with the permission of Harper & Row, Publishers, INC.
Design and Photography Credits: The cover illustration is a colored photograph by Mark Scott and features a Southwestern vista of differently colored mesas and geologic features. This edition also has front and back fold-outs, the front fold-out contains a brief synopsis of the three novels and the back fold-out contains a continuation of the synopsis and a brief Tony Hillerman biography.
