Hello from England. I received the book today, and just wanted you to know that I'm really happy with it -- its condition is really amazing, and a lot better than I had hoped. It also happens to be a really excellent book, which helps. I also wanted to say thanks for the great packaging: it's surprisingly often that companies don't pack their books properly and they end up getting damaged during the shipping process! Kind regards,
Deal Argosy. The book received yesterday, I am very happy about that. I bought a lot book from the internet, I have to rate the Argosy Book Store is the best, world class grade. Thanks again. Best Regards
