Excellent experience from start to finish! Noah Webster's Collected Essays on Politics, Literature, and Morals (1843) arrived very quickly—much faster than anticipated. The packaging was thorough and secure, ensuring this rare and fragile item was well-protected during transit. The book was exactly as described, with all expected age-related wear clearly noted in the listing. A true gem for any collector. Highly trustworthy seller—thank you for preserving history so well!
