Harold_V said:The copyright remained with Ammen. That is clearly stated. Whether this entity has authority to reprint, or not, we can not say.
Looks like our friend RR was right.

C. W. ( Bill ) Ammen passed away May 30/2011

The last publish dates 2oo1, 2006, 2009 while Ammen was still living would more than likely add some truth that Deep Rock Resources had some connection with Ammen and did reprints of the book with the authors permission, but to claim copyright ownership was certainly misleading.
Chapman and Hall own the copyrights to this book, permission to reprint has been granted to various publishers. Thank you RR for pushing me into doing further research i have learned much from it.
I posted in good faith.
Ammen authored 12 books, many of which he did transfer the copyrights over to various publishers.http://cocatalog.loc.gov/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?DB=local&PAGE=First
Records show that Ammen transferred the copyright over to Chapman and Hall, who choose to show Ammen as the first claimant in the published book.
