In1911, Claire and Dora Williamson traveled to Dr. Linda Hazzard's Institute of Natural Therapeutics near Seattle, Washington.

    Package arrived from Skokie, IL to southeast Michigan in three days. Book was wrapped well in an large outer plastic mailing envelope and in a second large plastic mailing envelope inside . Book was in the condition described and even has the errata sheet insert. I had no problems with the seller, and I would buy from them again. Good sale.

  • Excellent book! Great story.

    My copy was in poor shape. Paid over $5 and there was a .99 cent sticker... And the shape of the book was poor. The story and author are amazing.
