You are the only person who has entered it, and you used Amazon, not LoC. You would not expect the LoC information to be in LT.
The book may not yet have been classified, as it is very new. The record you include says

MarthaJeanne,
True, I didn't pull the data originally from LOC, but I did find it in the LOC catalogue, and it has an LOC Control Number.

>5 Bearpecs:
LT pulls data from somewhere ONLY when a book is added to the site from there. So if you want the LOC information to show up either wait for someone to add it from LOC or another library (which may never happen for rare books) so the work level data gets the details or delete your Amazon-sourced record and add it from LOC. The fact that it is in LOC is irrelevant until someone pulls it from there - there is no "back channel" that synchronizes with LOC or anywhere else.
If this is not what you are asking - what exactly are you asking?
>6 Bearpecs:
No - the link is not to your book but to the work containing it. This is called touchstone and it helps people find the book you are talking about without needing to use search. It is a common courtesy to post it when someone has a question about a book - and when a new member does not provide the touchstone, whoever looks at the problem first usually posts the link to help anyone else trying to assist. :)

What I notice is that the LoC record does not include LoC classification. Normally, it would. (See https://catalog.loc.gov/vwebv/holdingsInfo?searchId=38786&recCount=25&re....
I really don't find it surprising that there are books, even published in the USA, that the LoC librarians haven't classified. They classify a large number of books, and get a certain amount of information when a copyright is registered. But this book is not available at the LoC.

LC Classification JF20-2112
according to Drake University. That entry should now be available through Overcat.
The way you find something like that out is by looking the book up in WorldCat and figuring out which of the libraries that hold it are LT sources and searching for it there. (And checking if the entry includes the particular information you are interested in.)

>1 Bearpecs: That record you linked to looks to be a vendor record. Most vendor records are short and don't have classification numbers. Texas Tech University uses HV553 .J47 2019 -- this call number seems standard for several other libraries that have the print book.
