How to delete books versions in Calibre?

Hi there,

I'm facing some challenges with a Library I downloaded with tons of books. It has a lot of books like the one shown in this pic:

In Calibre, seems to be pointing to the last one but... how could I delete the previous ones?

You are peeking under the skirts

Normally, there is NO NEED to ever go there. Calibre will deliver books with the Send to Device/Save to... Icons.

FYI Each book title on your list, has a ID number. That indicates that Calibre has it in its list. If you Delete/Merge a Book, the book with the number representing the From location (ID number) will be removed.

Your list indicates that you have 4 Duplicates in your library.
If you sort on title, they should show near each other. If You Search on the Author: you should see All of them.
