The Wanley arrived SO quickly, and I really love it! It is extremely hard to put down, even for a minute. Thank you very much for the book, the phone conversation, and the speedy arrival.
I received my book order today, sooner than I expected and packaged with the care I have come to know from ABAA book sellers. When you described this book’s condition as Fine, you meant it! I couldn’t find one fault. Thank you.
