This is a great book although, amazon never delivered. I had ordered this book 2 weeks before school(along with 2 other books for school), it never came. Amazon said that i have an “undeliverable” address, but when i ordered it from ebay i got it in 3 dAys! Then i had to wait forever for a refund!

The book took a long time to arrive and I was starting to get worried. The shipment was not as fast as some of the other products I have ordered. Also the book was not in as great of a condition as the description for the book said it would be.

a doggoned good actor and even better friend whose copy of this fine book was presented to me
by his Mother after he left for "That Great Sound Stage In The Sky."
Thanks, Marty & Miriam!]

It was a great experience. The book was in the condition it was presented in. Great bargain. Delivery was smooth. I could not have asked for more.
