The Legend of Sigurd and Gudrun US versions

Just bought a trade hardback copy of this in the UK (used but as new condition from Amazon) but it's a US version published by HMH. It is somewhat smaller than the other books I have (all HC) and I wonder if this is the case for all the HC or HMH non-Middle-earth books or if I need to maybe sell and buy a UK one? It was cheap enough and I bought it to see if I enjoy other areas of JRRTs work outside the legendarium. I suspect that I will so want to start of the right path collecting them. I'd prefer them to match in size if possible.
Thanks
Shane

Not noticed this on a book before.
www.lordoftheringstrilogy.com ?
This seems to be a bad website?

The HMH volumes are shorter in size for the most part. Here is a sampling to demonstrate.

Aha, thank you. I did wonder. I'll gauge how much it bothers me in due course ?
