- a***d (277)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe book was shipped without tracking - which was admittedly a bit stressful - but the communication with the seller was absolutely wonderful. They were understanding and gracious throughout. It took about six weeks for the book to arrive, but it was well packaged and in perfect condition. The appearance and quality of the book are pristine. You can absolutely order with con understand that the shipping may take a bit longer than what you may expect with a tracked shipment. Highly recommended.Once an Eagle by Anton Myrer (#394185231841)
