That photo is in the soft cover version as well. The book failed my test though. It had the term "Star Destroyers" in it, and if it's about the making of Star Wars, they should be "Imperial cruisers".

What are you talking about? Lucas used the term Star Destroyer in all the early drafts of the screenplay. Just because the term didn't make it into the dialogue of the finished film doesn't mean he wasn't using the term at all. Notice that the term "The Sith" never made it into the film either.
