Its the same issue. The pictures, whether cover art or interior artwork, have their own independent copyrights. The rights to the text of the book may by be acquired or it may be public domain. The images apparently are still under copyright and Google hasn't obtained rights to them.
It's quite possible that the publisher of the Amazon offering has obtained the rights or is the copyright holder outright.
