    The book arrived promptly, with tracking included, and that is a real plus for me. It was very carefully packaged so that no damage could occur in postal handling. The book itself, a 1957 edition, was pristine! Immaculate and absolutely just as described! In fact I would consider it actually better than described. Photos were provided before I ordered. I could not be happier with this book. The value was exceptional! This vendor is outstanding!

    Chesapeake-- all the above checked boxes.

    I read this book 7 years ago. I saw on internet lately and wanted for my small library. I was a history and political science major in college. Book encompasses my interest in development of the USA. Jane

    Chesapeake is great!

    I so enjoy James Michener historical novels, and have read Chesapeake before, but am really looking forward to reading it again. My only sad thing is that I thought it was a soft bound book not hard bound, as an elder person I find it hard to read in bed with a hard backed book.

    One of the best Michener book ever

    A well researched historical novel that gives a vivid picture of the history of the Chesapeake Bay over the centuries. Have read the book twice already and bought this copy because I gave my last book to a friend to read. Museums in the Chesapeake Bay such as in St. Michaels and Solomons Island reflect the history described by Michener.
