This book may look “beat up” because of how it looks in the pictures BUT

I truly can say

DONT JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER

THIS book is in prime condition in the inside.It is very heavy because a 123 years ago they used very good,heavy paper for their textbooks.This is from THE INTERNATIONAL CORRESPONDENCE SCHOOL

The pages are filled with great information and illustrations all readable as the day it was written.

The spine remains strong and will remain strong to keep all the pages from moving. can not tell you the amount of pages because of how they wrote that

123 Years ago

So with this all in mind this is a great book in great antique condition enriched with information from when

IT ALL STARTED

A great deal for its price I feel.

see all pictures as they are part of the description

thanks for looking
