A few underlined words; which I don't mind; and I put 2 small pieces of tape on the binding; (it's a large paperback textbook; so I expected the binding to be alittle torn)... For $5 and $3.99 shipping; I am very happy! Thank you very much.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Nice picturesBy Caleb CarlsonGood book. Lots of neat illustrations; and speculations on early civilizations. Unfortunately I did not end up needing this book for my Humanities class; but having it on my coffee table makes me look smarter haha.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
