    Brand new book having the author's signature (as advertised) at a very favorable, discounted price, with a Brodart-protected dust jacket. The book was very well packaged (in a box) to ensure that it arrived in pristine condition, which it did. I am tremendously pleased with this purchase, and I would not hesitate to make more purchases from this seller. Highly recommended!
