Bad service.
I never received the ordered product even though I was charged for it. The seller never contacted me to inform any problems. Instead, I had to go through amazon to get a refund. I would not recommend ordering from this seller.

eh
this package includes the second half of the series (volume 2) that goes from 1340 to the present.It includes a book of "sources" (primary documents) from the time period.The book is rather bland and has cheap metaphors left and right.The information is good though. ... Read more

1 AWSOME page turner!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This book is just down right full steam from beginning to end! I would not quite know how to deal with the death of my child. Whether their is 1 or more. To lose something wordlessly dear, it is just unimaginable. Youalways expect your children to bury you....not you burying your children.And to have so much evidence of foul play???? I would continue to searchout everything I could even if I went broke doing so. There seems to beenough there already to restart another look at this crime.

Please readthis story and share it with your friends. You'll be glad you did!!

A real page turner!
To try and imagine the tramua that this family has endured is incomprehensible.Then to realize that the people you should have been able to believe(the police) have been covering up direct information that isvitial to finding the killer and bringing him to trial. The facts describedthrough the family's own investigations are very convincing to the pointthat if I were a detective I would have to reopen the case and do anotherwhole investigation of my own. There are just too many unanswered questionsthat if a proper investigation would have been done,there would be nounanswered questions. I wish I were and outside investigator. I would wantto reveiw this case for my own satisfaction and to prove that our legalsystem is honorable. That NO ONE is "ABOVE THE LAW." No matterhow much money or power you have. If you break the law you pay- just likeeveryone else. I will follow the story and look forward to the next bookthat will hopefully show that justice has prevailed. ... Read more

Horrible service
Not on time, and still don't have the item, it has been a month since I ordered and never emailed me back about anything like when they would ship it or even what they were doing. I would never buy from this person if you are looking at their items.

Good Buy...Good Price
Normally this book is over $100 dollars in my college bookstore and it wasn't offered "used" so it was great to see this at such a good price!

It was a bit more "used" than I thought it would be, but that is ok, I can still read it!

wrong book
I was sent the wrong edition of the bookSources of The Making of the West, Peoples and Cultures: Volume I: To 1740

Great Book and Fast shipping
I needed this book asap for class.It arrived the very fast within a day or two.It was in great condition and very helpful.Great seller.

Good textbook
This is a good textbook in that the facts are condensed and their is very little editor opinion. However being so condensed does mean that more detailed information will need to be researched for essays and exams. Overall I would recommend this to anyone wanted a good history book.

The Making of the West: People and Cultures, Vol 1: To 1740
The book came in good time and it is helpful for the class that my husband is taking. It was a great priced compared to our University's bookstore.
