Bust Half Fever

Is this book like the Overton guide where the more recent edition isn't the best one?
I see there's a first edition and second edition of Bust Half Fever - which one should I try to purchase?

Unlike the Overton book, "Bust half Fever" is not all about attribution, but about all of the nuances of collecting Capped Bust Halves.

Go to Early United States Coins - to order the New "Early United States Half Dollar Vol. 1 / 1794-1807" book or the 1st new Bust Quarter book!

Yeah...it's not an attribution guide but more about the fun of collecting CBHs.

This was the first book I read and after reading it, I was hooked.
A great read, and I would go for the second edition.

<< <i>BUST HALF FEVER second edition is the first book anyone interested in Capped Bust Half Dollars should own. Buy the Overton attribution book later, if you indeed start to seriously collect by die marriage. If you only collect REDBOOK varieties, there is no need for the Overton book. >>
I would actually highly recommend the Overton 3rd book to *anyone*. How else will you know if you've hit the jackpot?
<< <i>I have a question for the others who have these two editions; did Ed personally sign all the books that were sold or only my books? >>
He signed both of mine, however we are friends and fellow Bust Half Nut Club members...

On his website, it says "Get your signed copy for your numismatic library today!" so I assume he's signing all of them.

Thanks for reminding me I still need it, the kids asked what they could get the old guy for XMas.
