Making of Goldeneye books

On Spyguise's site they are selling a book about the making of Goldeneye that was only sold in England and yet Bond pics has a book titled The Making of Goldeneye which I think was just published in the US. Are these two books the same or it is really two books covering the same subject and if so which one do you like better if you have read them.

    I am only aware of the UK version - there is no US version.
    Same thing with Tomorrow Never Dies.

    If you are referring to the copy on my website (www.Bondpix.com/shop), it is the UK version, the same as the ones available from Spyguise (although mine is in mint condition, Spyguise has water damage)

    I got a copy of this - signed by Eunice Huntheart - double for Famke Janssen in the film. :D

    Thanks for your help everyone. I was pretty sure that only one book existed and was only available for sale in the UK.

    Well I purchased a copy for my collection, and it is one of the best making of books a fan could have in their collection.

    Brosnan's on set diary was pretty neat, He talked about filming both in the studio, and on location, also it seemed like just every other day in England he was answering questions for one news outlet or another. Also their are fantastic photographs in color and black and white of filming the various scenes, and of the cast and crew members accounts of working on the film.

    Also I really enjoyed reading the short section where the weapons master on the film was interviewed, as I have big interest in firearms. I was pretty surprised that originally both a Glock 17 and an H&K MP5K were going appear in the film in a scene (which was later deleted, but can viewed on the DVD.) where Valentine was looking purchase some weapons from another arms dealer, but upon inspection discovers the weapons to be cheap knock offs.
