heat of vaporization and fusion

[joonkimdds]

this is from Kaplan #69.
it says the heat of vaporization is greater than the heat of fusion.

If you look at the horizaontal length, it's clear that the heat of fusion is much longer than the heat of vaporization so shouldn't we say that the heat of fusion is greater?

If I'm not mistaken, heat of vaporization will always be higher than heat of fusion because of having to break intermolecular forces and work done in expansion.
