Wiley, copyright 1997. First printing. Large hardback, 11-1/4 inches tall, xvi + 348 pp. including appendix and index, with dust jacket. Many illustrations, including a section of color photos. Many plans. This copy in overall very good condition. Clean, unmarked pages. No hi-liting. Previous owner's name on front fly-leaf (endpaper), but no other signs of previous ownership. A few pages look slightly dimpled, but hardly noticeable. Sound, sturdy binding. No cracks. Dust jacket looks a little shelfworn, esp. around edges, and it has a small tear near top of spine. But overall the book looks lightly used. Perhaps used in a college architecture class. Appears to be a textbook. Nice copy.

Store Description

I started selling books online around 1997-8, first on Bibliofind and then on Amazon. In my youth, I worked for a college textbook store and later at a university library. So I'm no stranger to scholarly books. Although semi-retired now, I still collect books and currently list for sale items no longer wanted in my personal library. Thus I do not have a large inventory as I am working from home. Still, I have an eclectic collection as befits a former librarian. My stock includes textbooks and scholarly books, with an emphasis on history, philosophy, and religion. My approval rating when I was with Amazon was 99% (2 were neutral). I'll try to accommodate any reasonable request.
