    This 140 year-old Volume II of Grant's memoirs is better than described. It is in great shape. A bit of leather conditioner took care of minor issues with the aged leather cover. Considering what two-volume sets in poor condition sell for, it was a bargain. I bought Volume I in great condition like this one from a different seller, and I now have a two-volume set at far less cost than sets sold together. Well packaged, quickly shipped and great communication. I highly recommend this seller.

    All items in the photographs were received. All items are in fine condition. The packaging protected the purchase from foul weather. It was received shortly after purchase. That in itself was a blessing, because I'm not at all familiar with the advanced features that so many 21st century have.
