Cover Art: The River of Shadows

U.S. Version

U.K. Version

I always find the differences between American and British covers. Evidently, us yanks prefer instruments of death to seascapes. I would assume it was just some random marketing decision, but I distinctly recall the same thing happening. The American version bore images of the compass, the knife, and the spyglass, while the British version feature character illustrations. What's up with that?
