    Item price was nice and the shipping was fast. The item as well was properly packaged but the condition was in way worse condition than listed probably was an honest mistake so I won’t blame them I’ve ordered from them before and they didn’t fail me then but this time was a dud. BUT they did refund me immediately no questions asked so that was a plus and a sign in my book of great customer service. Aside from my small issue with the items condition which was resolved quickly I had no problem A++

    A Political prophecy of Sorts

    Uncanny book!! Orwell must have had a crystal ball when he pinned this book. Looking back, he was right on target with his information. Since I have lived through that time and have had a first hand look at a lot of the things he spoke about, I am startled at his being able to predict with such accuracy, the world's current condition. It is a MUST book to read.
