    Although this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.

  • History made enjoyable!

    Robert Lacey caught my attention with a collaboration between himself & Danny Danzinger -"The Year 1000". It was not only informative as well as enjoyable. I was then engulfed with his trilogy "Great Tales from English history." I am now 1/4 intro his work- "little man" which is again very informative. I also offer him a sincere "Thank you" for his simplistic use of the English vocabulary. I recommend this and any of his work!
