The Concise McGraw-Hill Guide: Writing for College, Writing for Life Review

The overall price was reasonable and the book was exactly as described. I marked this down to 4 stars due to shipping. The shipping was fast and reached me on time however it was poorly packed and the book was a little abused by the time that i recieved it. It was is good codition with minor ware from sliding around in the box during shipping. It was just not the condition you would expect when recieving a new book. I understand that it was a large paperback book like most college textbooks and can be tricky to ship. Overall I would buy other college material from amazon without hesitation.
