    1st edition, 2nd impression edition of "The Drunken Forest," by Gerald Durrell is as pictured & described. Arrived quickly & safely! Got a great deal on it! Great communication! The book, with a protective mylar cover, was wrapped in bubble wrap, then wrapped in sturdy cardboard, then placed in a rugged bubble mailer! Fort Knox in a mailer! So hard to get an early edition of this classic! So happy to add to my growing collection of nature & science books! Thank you! !!Seller Highly Recommended!!

    Exactly as described, looked brand new, great price. and packaged really well. At first was not provided a tracking number, contacted seller and they immediately responded, got tracking number but only problem I was given a tracking number for ups not usps and after reading some reviews they said they got a ups tracking and it was actually usps not ups. I was able to track it by tracking usps. Other than that small mixup everything was perfect. Will purchase from again, very happy with book

    Every massage therapist should own this. Everyone interested in general history of man will enjoy it.

    As a massage therapist, this is a must have and read. He who does not study the history of their trade is just plain doomed. The NCE just removed history entirely from their exam, giving the quacks and the massage product industry to take advantage and profit from our ignorance of our history and can lie for profits. Read this to protect yourself, your practice and your wallet.
