    The book arrived sooner than expected. It was packaged extremely well to insure the book was not damaged. The item was in near perfect condition, like new, as they advertised it. And the item was priced right. I originally purchased this book in 1981 and was glad to see I could obtain a copy of it. I am very pleased with this seller.
