    Mistakenly ordered a paperback that I thought was a hardcover, not sellers fault; it was described properly on the listing. Seller still processed a refund the day I went to return the item and let me keep the item anyway. A+++ service. Book arrived quickly in great condition and for a great price. Thank you so much! Amazing seller!

    seller was communicative about my shipment, media mail took a while and tracking wasn't updated frequently, but seller communicated to me very quickly on status. the item came new and wrapped as described, though the packaging in it was packed wasn't sturdy and falling apart when it got to me.

  • Fills a niche and worth it

    The copy I got was a little beat up, and it's an older edition. That is important because he has appendices with the dates of solar eclipses, lunar eclipses, etc. You'll want a newer copy for that. But the content of the book itself is marvelous. And I like the size (it's small). And the rugged construction.
