Item was in very good condition. Good photos and overview of Windsor Castle. Would like the book to be larger in size for photos of formal rooms. Still good value for the dollar. Good sampler to let you decide if you want to purchase larger book on the subject.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
