I have just received the copy of Mysterious Island by Jules Verne which I ordered previously. The book arrived in the condition in which it was sent and I am very impressed with the condition of the book. I would like to thank the staff for all of their assistance and will certainly order again!

Hello. The book was just delivered in Paris. Thank you so much for taking such care in the packing of it, it arrived in excellent condition. It may be hard to believe but not everyone is so attentive... W. R. written as events were unfolding. And a First Edition too. This restored antique book is in beautiful condition and completes my set. Thank you for the opportunity to purchase your item
