  1. 100% pleased. Book was exactly as described. The book was well packed and shipped promptly. This will make a great addition to the "Bo Brown Memorial Gay & Lesbian Collection" that I've been in the process of building & donating to the Sterne Library & Archives at the University of Alabama in Birmingham (now totaling 10,000 + books & pamphlets!) Thanks so much.
