Carl, one of the books I have is ISBN 1-901432-04-1.  It is copywrited 1998.  
It has 128 pages, is entitled "Original Triumph TR4/4A/5/6" and says "New 
Edition" in the lower right corner of the book jacket.  That seems to be the 
one at the Haynes booksite you referenced.

I was unaware of any  1994 version of  "Original Triumph TR4/4A/5/6."  I only 
know of the 1991 book "Original Triumph TR"(ISBN 1-870979-24-9, which is the 
same as the older ISBN # you cite below).  It is NOT titled "Original Triumph 
TR4/4A/5/6." It IS titled "Original Triumph TR" and is 111 pages and also 
includes a whole section on the "side screen" TR's.  Sounds as if what you 
may have is a 2nd edition of that 1991 book.

Done.  As I said above, What is at the Haynes website is the 1998 version.  I 
have that one.  Check the title on the earlier ISBN 1-870979-24-9 you have.  
I'll bet it is "Original Triumph TR."
