      Advertised as new but, has creases as if it is used. As for the shipping, I ordered it late at night on a Tuesday and it was delivered on a Saturday. It went from Illinois to Texas in 3 1/2 days and arrived 6 days before the quoted delivery date. Pretty impressive. Good eBayer that I would consider buying from again. Thank you!

    • Waste of money because it was marked up and crossed out

      The book was written on on every page, red pen circles cross outs and it was basically unreadable for my daughters AP English class. We wasted our money.

    • A challenge for someone who likes to read.

      This is a classic; fantastic writing, but very complex. I read it and am not sure what was going on.
