- i***0 (493)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseBook as described but shipped in a mailer vs a box. One corner got crunched which was disappointing. This is a heavy, expensive, and hard to find book in a hardcover, so it’s a shame it was shipped like this. But overall I am good with the book.
