I had been looking at several listings for this book and the price for this one was much better than others, I assumed it would be a paperback instead of the hardback which arrived. Looks great, very nice to have a hardback version for a fraction of the price!Ball RedBook Vol. 2 : Crop Production by Jim Nau (2011, Hardcover) (#146338180204)
