Book had insufficient packing. The bent, torn corners of the book show that a heavy hardback book will poke holes in plastic bubble wrap. Especially “media mail” which is made for magazines at best. It was paid for 5-3, Post Office 5-7 set 5–13 arrival date. It shuffled around multiple sites but never got to GA. Arrived 5-13! I would have paid for Priority 2 day if it was available but it was not offered to me. I would never waste a moment more of this sellers time by buying from again.
