The seller shipped this book quickly. The book package was double wrapped in paper and plastic inside a mailing box. It was as described and the item pictured. Collecting material from multiple sources into one “manual” makes it a valuable resource for guiding training of infantry soldiers. Historically, this tenth edition is during the middle of WW 2 and reflects the changes the US Army had made to fight on the battlefields of that war.

This was a great buying experience! The book was exactly as described if not better than described. Ordered this book with other books and they were extremely well packaged to protect them and shipment was fast. Communication with this seller was excellent and extremely helpful. I would definitely not hesitate to purchase from this seller again and most likely will. Thanks!
