The short version
Both books have the same 13 chapters. From the section “Is Off-Grid Living Right for You?” to the conclusion, the text is the same in both; only the About the Author page at the end differs.
The differences are mostly at the start: the introduction, the opening of Chapter 1, the printed subtitle, the front matter and the About the Author page.
Because the content is shared, most readers need only one of the two books.
