Seller's Description:
Very good. Connecting readers with great books since 1972! Used books may not include companion materials, and may have some shelf wear or limited writing. We ship orders daily and Customer Service is our top priority!
Without even considering when this was written, a most incredible piece of "alternate history", in Mr. Shute's unique style; understated, sensitive, naive in a very positive way. I'd recommend it highly to any of my friends---but wouldn't loan it to ANYone!
