About this Item

The first hardcover edition. Full printing line with "1" on its copyright page. This is a very clean ex-library book from Everett High School, in Washington state. Its jacket is in good condition, bright and unmarked, marred only by a 3"X1.5" rectangle clipped out of the top right of its back, but otherwise whole and unworn. The book is in very good condition, marred only by a neatly removed front end paper, a library stamp on the top, bottom, and right edges of its page block, plus tape ghosts on the outside of its covers' top and bottom edges, and light bumps on its spine ends. Its binding is sound and square, with no spine crease. Covers are otherwise unmarked and unworn. Pages are unworn and otherwise unmarked. Its dust jacket is bright, unmarked, and otherwise whole and unworn. I will ship this book in a moisture proof zip-loc bag, padded in bubble cushion, inside a sturdy box to assure it reaches its new owner in the same condition as my description.

Sale & Shipping Terms

Terms of Sale

Terms of Sale are per ABE Books standards and your national consumer laws.

Shipping Terms

Items will be carefully packaged to assure they arrive as described.
All shipments will be via US Postal Service unless requested otherwise. Standard shipping within the USA will be via USPS Media Mail. Priority shipping within the USA will be via USPS First Class Mail.
My current Standard shipping rate within the USA is US$4.00 for the first book, and US$2.00 for additional books in the same order.
There are two situations where I will refund to the buyer a portion of the postage charged by ABEBOOKS: (1) Separate orders placed on the same date for shipment to the same address will be shipped together, so I will refund half of the postage paid for the first book in each such second and subsequent order. And (2) Books described as "paperbacks" in my descriptions weigh less than other books, so I will refund US$1.00 of the paid shipping fee for the 2nd and subsequent paperbacks in the same order shipping to the same address.
Please contact me via ABE if you have any questions or special requests about packing and shipment, such as insurance or shipment by carriers other than US Postal Service. I will be happy to work with you if my standard policies need adjustment or exceptions.
