I wanted you to know that my book arrived in about 3 days in perfect condition. I am not an expert in grading book conditions, but to call this book very good with very good dust jacket is a true understatement. This book is pristine and immaculate.

I buy a lot of books on line and have never received a book so carefully prepared for shipping. It is refreshing to get such professional attention and I hope I can find more books at your place.
The book came and what a treasure, thank you! It was autographed on one of the early pages by the author, to the famous British writer Rebecca West. I like this author, James Milne, and am thrilled to have a book autographed by him, and to someone like Rebecca West, too! One never knows what one will find in an old book!
