Customer Reviews

Not what was offered.

This was NOT the Library of America two volume set with ribbon book marks, as specified. It’s a cheap one-volume affair with very tiny printing, useless to my aging eyes. I collect and enjoy the Library of America volumes when I can find them, and this was not what I wanted.
