Sir:
Do you still have this book available for purchase? If so, can you
please tell me the condition of the book? I am interested in
purchasing the book if it is in good condition, i.e. no pages missing,
no ripped or torn pages, no writing in book, binding still intact.
My address is
1409 Bayview Drive
Havre de Grace, MD 21078
Thank you,
Major Tom Stocks, U.S. Army
