I've checked the obvious (licensing pages) and didn't find the extra words there. I thought it might be organization so I checked in editor. One has 71 files, the other has 109. If Count Pages was counting words in the <head> then that still doesn't explain it-because the one with fewer files shows as having more words.

Is there a plug in that can compare two books & highlight any text differences? Or even any differences at all. Thanks.
You can check the difference with calibre Editor:

1) Open Book 01 with the Editor (on calibre library, select it and press T)
2) On the Editor window, go to File > Compare to another book
3) Browse for Book 02
4) The diferences will be displayed side by side, line by line
