The book came directly from Amazon. It was in excellent condition (brand new). I saved alot of money compared to those other stores. The shipping was cheap too!


4 out of 5 stars Great Prices for Textbooks!   September 28, 2008
Blair Bear (Austin, TX)
I was looking online for better prices on my textbooks and I found that Amazon.com's price was like $40 cheaper. I will say that I was a little disappointed at how long it took to get the book as my class began before I had the book. We have quizzes every class so it was hard to do my readings for the quizzes. Fortunately, most of these stories are in the public domain so I was able to find them online. Anyway, I love the book; it has great stories and the price was worth the wait!


3 out of 5 stars Good condition-- bad timing.   September 23, 2008
Ashlee
it was a good book with everything looking brand new.. but it took FOREVER to get to me i even spent more money to get it shipped sooner and i got it later then what i was supposed to... i didnt get my money back or anything for that.. so i probably will not use that company again.


4 out of 5 stars Rich Literature. A great collection of American writings!   April 15, 2008
Lew (CO, USA)
I had to buy this book for a class and have been impressed with how many writings it contains. It also discusses different styles and provides in-depth descriptions to make the poetry and stories more understandable to the average reader. I would recommend this book for someone interested in reading fine literature. It also comes in handy for writers as well.
