Store description
I am a natural history book collector who occasionally sells duplicate books I've acquired in the process of building my own collections. I strive to accurately describe all books I offer in the same detail I would like if I was purchasing the book myself and am happy to provide additional details on condition to anyone interested in purchasing.
