    Book in perfect new condition/appearance and a great value at this price; the packaging was of the usual thoughtful protective sort that I've come to expect from this seller; and the shipping was super-duper fast, again, as always. I've purchased many books from this seller and have never been less than thrilled with any of them. Thanks again, fine Gardner folks!

    The Folio book I have been looking for for years arrived yesterday! It was beautifully packaged and is in perfect condition. The seller kept me informed and updated on each step of the sale and the book arrives sooner than expected. I will definitely be back to check Gardner’s Used Books for other fine books as I am updating my entire library to hardback, well made books. The price was reasonable compared with other sellers too! Happy customer here!
