Store Description

We are online booksellers. I accept credit cards thru ABE. I am very careful to describe any imperfections a book or dust jacket may have. Generally, all flaws will be mentioned, however, some slight imperfections may be judged as not worthy of specific mention. Customers are always welcome to request more detailed information about a book's condition prior to ordering. Most of our books have dust jackets and a removable mylar covering, unless otherwise indicated. Photographs are of the book you will receive. INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: I cannot offer free shipping for international purchases. Please email me in advance of purchase so we can discuss the shipping costs and options.
