You've got yourself one happy customer at this end, folks. I've been looking for another copy of "West of the Indus" for nearly twenty years (I know, it's such a cultural wasteland out here in the provinces), and I never expected to find one with a dust jacket. I am amazed. Thank you so much. I've enjoyed many books over the years, but this one has always been one of my favorites. Now if I can just figure out how to share it with my friends without losing it...
Many thanks for obtaining "Churchill's Generals" - a pristine copy that I did not expect. In recent years Argosy has obtained several books for me that I had been trying to find for quite a while... Many, many thanks!
