Two different books
I read the orginal book when I was a kid...it was a typical
Heinlein book
with the typical heinlein
ending
.
After his death, there were a lot of Heinlein's books that were reissued with editorial deletions restored basically any book that had been heavily edited were reissued in a more complete restored format.
Some of the books, merely expanded the
original text
or modified it to make a more complete book. A lot of changes were done for no real reasons. There were other books that explained Heinlein's problems with certain editors, I think it might have been "Grumbles"
The two books have a common thread..the similiarities end there. With the edits restored you see what the Master was trying to say. You know, you read a book...and there are times that there is just something missing. You can't put your finger on it...but, it's just not there.
The editors axe may be the explanation. When the editorial custs are restored it becomes a more complete read...in fact, it comes across as a totally different book..and it sure has a totally different ending.
If you can find
both
, get them and read them..and you will get really angry with the editors. I was denied answers for 20 years. At least, I got a chance to read this book as Heinlein intended. Not as some editor felt it should be.
