Excellent condition just as described/pictured, fast shipping and securely packed to protect the book from any nefarious people at USPS who like to destroy packages (and there are many -- King Kong among them). Thanks so much! A+++ seller.

First, I would say I am highly pleased with the communication from this vendor. He informed me quickly of a discrepancy between his listing and the actual book. I very much respect the honesty in doing business. Secondly, the book arrived well packed and intact. I was very pleased with the condition of the book when it arrived. Very happy camper.
