Oh my goodness, I couldn't possibly be happier with my purchase! This seller has excellent communication (I sent a request for pictures of a different item and they replied within 6 hrs and were SO helpful and thorough), shipping was lightening fast, it was packaged well, and the product is FAR better than advertised. It is in like new condition! Such a pleasant surprise. I HIGHLY recommend this seller. 5 star transaction.

  • The Sinking Of The Eastland by Jay Bonansinga (2005)

    Outstnding read...mystery, history, tragedy. Writing style puts you on-site of the adventures. A right there while it's happening feeling. Fabulous storytelling of a real life situation. Read it in one day. Super book. My son roared through it, so did my brother-in-law, both with kudos for the writer. Have since ordered and loved other books by the author. A!+ writing skill. Recommend. Frizzellcat

  • Very interesting read. My mother was supose to be on the ship that day! She was 16 at the time.
