    Wonderful seller! Book was shipped quickly and seller took great caution to pack book so it wouldn’t be damaged in transit. Book arrived exactly as shown in listing. Book is in wonderful condition, and seller was kind enough to combine shipping for an additional book I ordered. Seller also included a few small vintage booklets on a similar subject. I am a huge fan of the work of Fr. Hughson and look forward to reading it! Thank you!

    Very quick ship, packaging was torn a bit to no fault of the seller. Seller reinforced the mailer to protect the books! Thank you for that. Description of the books was exactly as stated. Excellent value for both. Many thanks !!!
