    The seller was incredibly communicative and was willing to lump together multiple items I'd purchased to combine shipping, which was greatly appreciated. The item itself was in perfect condition, looks better than in the photo, and was packaged well to avoid any damage during shipping. It arrived quickly and without any issues! Excellent Seller, Goes the Extra Mile. Smooth Transaction, Shipped Very Quickly, As Advertised; Good Price; Well Packaged & Delivered Within a Few Days. A+

    Thank you so much for offering this art book. Your price was fabulous on it. I had no communication, but you are no doubt a kind person. You are also a professional person, and your attention to detail really helped me in making my purchase decision. I'm adding you to my favorite seller list, and I always do shop with this list first. And also, I'd like to thank you for the lovely packaging, and the extremely fast shipping. The book was exactly as you described it. Happy New Year, if I can say.

    This book is fantastic! It is exactly as described and came at an excellent price. As far as I'm concerned, this is by far a first-rate, five-star seller that deserves everyone's business. The seller packaged the book with extreme care, shipped it quickly, and communicated effectively as needed throughout the process. This was an excellent buying experience on a well-priced book, and I wouldn't hesitate to buy from this seller again.

  • Comprehensive collection of Benjamin Franklin's writings

    I purchased this because I wanted a hardback copy of his Autobiography. In addition to that book, there are 1,306 pages before that is included in this volume. It includes his early newspaper writings. Letters written while he was the United States Ambassador to France during the Revolutionary War. And other writings. It is a superb value, even if all you were really looking for was the Autobiography. He is a very unique figure in the history of our Country. He essentially developed a form of franchise for people who wanted to start up a newspaper. He was a man of science. And, arguably, the most important diplomat in the history of our country. If he hadn't persuaded the French to back the US in their revolution, there might not be a United States at all. Plenty to read and ...

  • More Franklin Than Anyone Needs

    I have always been a fan of Benjamin Franklin, since I was a teenager. With 1632 pages of his writings there is more than enough for a lifetime of reading, thinking and rereading. The autobiography and Poor Richard's Almanck have been lifetime friends. With the additional writings contained the the LOA edition it is hard to not admire this founding father: his intellect, curiosity,humor, inventiveness, leadership and even quite a bit of somewhat off-color writing. He was the original "dirty old man" of the American Revolution. It's all here, the man lives through the pages of this volume and the book has a special place on my preferred bookshelf.
