    The price of the item under the "Buy It Now" option was very good, and rather than risk getting involved in a bidding war, I went for it. The item (a beer stein from the SS Norway) arrived on time, in the condition advertised, and packaged well to avoid damage. I have a pretty good collection of items related to the SS France/SS Norway, but this was something I'd never seen before, so, of course, I am very happy with my purchase and would ABSOLUTELY do business with this seller again. :D

    This wonderful Vintage Chined Foo Dog/Lion is in excellent condition….just as described and shown in the pictures. It was fairly priced, and was packaged well. The shipping, through no fault of the seller, took longer than expected. Seller communication was quick and very helpful. Thank you!

    This was a very easy transaction. The seller was very responsive, quick to ship, item packaged well to prevent breakage. The shipping price was high for a less than 1/2 pound item including packaging. Even my carrier commented. I would buy from this E-bay seller again.

    A great book,a great man

    Excellent book for anyone who likes US history-well written,informative.It is one of those books(many in last 20-40 years)that give Adams the recognition he DESERVES.For too long Washington,Jefferson,Franklin have been given TOO MUCH credit and Adams place underrated.

    Too Many Words

    Davis McCullough is one of my favorite authors, (The Wright Brothers, for example.) Too often, however, he gets mired in minutiae which makes his work, while fine for researchers, quite tedious for the casual reader.

  • Great history

    A typical David McCullough masterpiece, when this book came out several years ago I greatly promoted it as a teacher, and I still do today. Great biography great subject, great historian.

  • Great Book by a Great Author

    David McCullough was a great historian and I am pleased to have one of his books. He was a Pulitzer Prize winning author.

  • Required reading for anyone who wonders why early America was truly exceptional

    Having watched the HBO TV series multiple times, I wanted to probe the details of McCullough's book. I was not disappointed. This is not revisionist history. It is truth told in a gripping human way that we all wish we had learned history. We need a heavy dose of it.
