I just wanted to thank you so much for arranging for this beautiful and fascinating book to arrive here in Suffolk UK so quickly. It landed at my door after only a few days despite being promised in a few months and I am thrilled with it. It’s about Nicholas Hawksmoor’s plans for Cambridge with exquisite illustrations by Gordon Cullen and was carefully wrapped and in excellent condition. I am very rarely in New York but will definitely be calling at 116, East 59th Street when next I’m near!
I have received it here in Australia and am very pleased with the book.
