Renzey's Bluebook - I and II

[JulieCA]

I keep seeing the Blackjack Bluebook II recommended here.

Are there significant differences/more information in II that aren't in the first book (no number, actually - I by default)?

I've never read book #1. It's out of print and fairly expensive. I've also never heard anyone recommend it.

Here's the official word on that: (Dead link: http://www.hitorstand.net/forum/showpost.php?p=22916&postcount=9)

Actually,that link compares the updated BJBB2 with the original BJBB2.
BJBB is an entirely seperate book, isn't it?

As far as I can tell:
Blackjack Bluebook-was published in 1997
Blackjack Bluebook 2 was published in 2003, and updated in 2006.
The original BJBB has something about "The right stuff" on the cover. It is offered on eBay and Amazon on occasion.

Oops?

You may be right; I really don't know.

Yes, the original book is on Amazon - that's where I got it. It wasn't that expensive either, and looks brand new.

OK - I'll go order the newer version. Should've checked years of publication before I ordered the book in the first place.

You guys know everything!
