I want to especially thank and commend the person there who wrapped and packaged this volume for shipping. I have only rarely seen it done with such conscientious skill!
Thank YOU sir! My Dad really wanted this book! My folks just bought a place in Spain, and I looked all over for this book! I'm so glad that I found it, can't wait to see his face on Christmas! Being that it's so old, he never thought he'd get one. Again, thank you!
