The Essential Atlas (2009) a later source than Starships of the Galaxy Saga Edition (2007), says Caamas was devastated by mercenaries.

The exact quote (page 158): The Caamas Firestorm

Unwilling to punish Caamas publicly, Palpatine arranged for the sabotage of its planetary shields and its bombardment by mercenaries. The wildfires ignited by the attack drove many of the planet's lifeforms to extinction.

Because it's a later source, should it not supersede Starships of the Galaxy's statement about Star Destroyers?

That statement was:

Imperial Star Destroyers are capable of delivering precise orbital strikes - destroying only a small section of a planet - as well as delivering bombardments that wipe out all life and industry on a planet (a tactic known as Base Delta Zero). Only those planets that have powerful shields can withstand the turbolasers of an Imperial Star Destroyer, and some worlds, such as Caamas, have been devastated by such tactics.
