1: brand spanking new
The book came out of plastic. Tt was in perfect condition. The shipping was a deal!

2: This book sucks.
In a number of places it paints a misleading picture of national history, and in more than one place essentially does a "Fox News" by presenting both sides of an argument and then subsequently saying, "And this is the right argument and that other one is wrong." Ugh.
The most sickening series of words I've seen thus far in the book is, "The American people are fit to rule." This is an actual conclusion that the book comes to and then asserts is correct. While it may more or less be a reasonable conclusion, the arrogance with which the text presents the material is, to me, almost unbearable at times.

3: big disappointment
The provider sent me a confirmation that I had paid for the book but never sent me the confirmation that they sent it out. I ordered it in plenty of time to receive it before classes started. I got it on the last day available (two weeks into the semester) before filing a complaint with amazon. In between classes starting and actually having the book I wrote multiple emails inquiring when the book was going to be shipped. They went unanswered. When I finally received the book, there was no notification that it had been sent. The book was in worse condition than advertised, and the address to and from were both addressed to me. So if the book had been the wrong edition then I couldn't have returned it, or if I had gotten a replacement book (which I was planning on doing if it didn't come in by the deadline) I still couldn't have returned it.
