Your site is very easy to navigate: the ability to select the state through an image is very helpful, and your information comes up quickly. I haven't been looking for maps for a very long time (about a year) but many sites really take a while to bring up, and map images are many times hard to come by...
My books arrived today and they are beautiful copies. Your packaging was also most excellent. You have a very happy customer up here in the north. Thank you.
