Wikipedia
hardback
A hardcover, hard cover, or hardback (also known as hardbound, and sometimes as case-bound) book is one bound with rigid protective covers (typically of binder's board or heavy paperboard covered with buckram or other cloth, heavy paper, or occasionally leather). It has a flexible, sewn spine which allows the book to lie flat on a surface when opened. Modern hardcovers may have the pages glued onto the spine in much the same way as paperbacks. Following the ISBN sequence numbers, books of this type may be identified by the abbreviation Hbk.

hardback
A hardback, also known as hardbound or hardcover, is a type of book characterized by rigid protective covers made from cardboard, cloth, paper, or leather. It is often used for more expensive or ceremonial books, as it provides better durability, longevity, and protection for the pages. It is generally larger in size and more expensive than a paperback. Hardback books often come with a removable paper cover called a dust jacket.
