    This book arrived in much better than "good" condition as described in the listing: I'd say "new and unread"! Excellent value, postage included in the price. Professionally packaged in recyclable cardboard and brown paper, very promptly dispatched and delivered via Royal Mail Tracked: 2 days purchase-to-delivery, so thanks for using Royal Mail ~ I always recommend them. Am very pleased with my purchase and happy to recommend this seller. Buy with confidence! Many thanks and best wishes, CJ.
