Very good condition hardcover book with dust jacket. Binding is sound. Hard covers still look brilliant under dustcover. Slight edgewear on covers. Looks like a very small nibble taken out of upper corner of pages (see picture). No writing or highlighting other than author's clear inscription in blue ink on the half title.  Unclipped dust jacket has original selling price of $4.95 on the inner sleeve and some tears and small missing pieces at top front and spine, and edgewear.  Please see pictures as they are considered part of the condition description.

SATISFACTION GUARANTEED: If you are unhappy with any aspect of this transaction, please contact me immediately. I will work hard to keep buyers happy and to resolve the rare problem promptly. 

QUALITY PACKAGING: I care about your purchase!  I package books and DVDs protected in plastic sleeves for water protection and wrapped carefully for safe and secure shipping.  There are cheaper, easier, and faster ways to package items for shipping but the risk of damage during shipment is not worth it for you or me.  I’m proud of the positive feedback I have received related to packaging.  

USPS MEDIA MAIL: I ship books and DVDs by USPS media mail.  Media mail is generally reasonably fast, but can rarely take up to 8 days, so please be patient.  Shipping outside of the U.S. is handled by the eBay Global Shipping program.  I ship to the eBay international shipping clearing house in Kentucky and eBay takes it from there.  eBay adds on the extra cost for international shipping and I have no control over that cost or how long it takes.  eBay should give you a shipping estimate/total on the listing page for your particular order.  

POSITIVE FEEDBACK: If you believe you would be happy to purchase something from me again in the future, please consider leaving me positive feedback for this purchase as it really helps small eBay sellers like me.  I leave feedback for buyers once they have posted feedback for me – let’s do this together!
