Fancy Goldfish : Complete Guide To Care And Collecting (Hardcover)
by Erik L. Johnson, Richard E. Hess
Hardcover: 176 pages
Publisher: Weatherhill (May 1, 2001)
ISBN: 0834804484
Table of Contents says
Chapter 1 Goldfish Keeping and Husbandry
page 17 Temperature

from this site
http://www.goldfishparadise.com/water/temperature.php
Ideal aquarium temperature for goldfish is actually between 70-75oF (21-24oC)
Goldfish can tolerate temperatures ranging from 32-86oF (0-30oC).
I doubt any book would list different temperatures than that.

My advice on both books is looking at the pictures on Amazon as the person you are reporting to is apt to ask you some extra question like what did the book look like...
