    Although this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.

  • Great Poems

    Jimmy Carter is writing about his life experiences. Very tender poems about people he loves, including his wife and mother. A 5 STAR BOOK that everyone would enjoy to read, written by a Great Man.
