About This Item
A collection of literature, both fiction and nonfiction, from well over 200 authors, organized by language of origin. Hinge splits showing binding fabric have occurred inside of the endpapers in the front and rear (see photos #3 and 4). Red fabric covered boards are faded over the spine but show little other wear. The pages are clean, tight and unmarked, with some age-related tanning. Owner's names in two places inside the front cover. A scarce book.
This book will ship at over three pounds. Excess shipping costs are included in the list price.

About Turtleman Used Books
Opened August 1st of 2022, Turtleman Used Books in Olympia, WA. Address is 108 22nd Ave SW, Olympia, WA 98501. Suite #4. This is a small shop, so some books may only be displayed online, others only displayed in the store. Come on by if you are in town. Closed Monday and Tuesday.
Many of my books are oversized. Rather than ask for shipping adjustments at the time of purchase, the list price for heavier books includes the excess shipping cost. All of my photographs are of the actual product, taken by my trusty little Kindle Fire. Currently we have about 2900 books offered for sale online, with more being added daily. Check back frequently to see what's new. -----
