Seller's Description:
Very Good. Very Good condition. Very Good dust jacket. A copy that may have a few cosmetic defects. May also contain light spine creasing or a few markings such as an owner's name, short gifter's inscription or light stamp.
Disapointing to say the least. The author is more concerned about her inter personal relationships with the inhabitants and tends to dwell uneccessarily on her misfortunes and insecurities. Distinct lack of historical and factual details considering the unique opportunity that she had to provide to gather information and provide a worthwhile read. No substance - a poor book.
