INCLUSO LLEGO ANTES DE LA FECHA. EFIICIENTE ENTREGA Y EMPAQUE. GRACIAS
Still reading and planning. Sequence along the Hudson River is a little confusing at times, doesn’t always seem linnear. I’m as far as Montreal on the reading.
Entertaining and engaging, this book was delivered when they said it would be, in a reasonable amount of time for a reasonable price.
Nice durable plastic placards instead of the decals you see a lot nowadays.
The book was received in excellent condition and delivered within reasonable time. As an international customer this was very important. American Nautical Services even followed up to make sure everything was good with my purchase. Thank you. Thumbs up.
