Item description from seller

First Edition (NAP). Included with the book is an oversized postcard or Cayman Card titled Sir Turtle. The rear side of it states that 'the Cayman Islands were originally named Las Tortugas, meaning The Turtles. This turtle, Cayman's Mascot, is seen everywhere around the island.' The postcard is from 1988. As you can see from the photos, the covers are perfectly clean. There is some color loss/fading on parts of the margins of the front cover. The book is square and very solidly bound from cover to cover with nicely tight pages throughout. These pages are full of color photographs and black and white drawings highlighting the beauty of the terrain and of the ocean life as photographed by the scuba divers. The pages in the book are in exceptional condition, very bright and very clean. There are no markings. No turned- down corner creases. No attachments. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. The only imperfection I see is quite minor: a very slight rippling or waviness of the paper just off the top edge, not reaching any of the photographs or print. The book was issued without a dust jacket.…

Store description

Many of the books I will be selling can accurately be described as ranging from somewhat rare to very rare. In some cases there won't be another copy for sale anywhere on the Internet. There doesn't seem much point, for you or me, in offering something that so many others are already offering. Subject matter will range very widely, creating the possibility for people with very different interests to find something that excites them. As regards pricing, my primary goal is to sell the book. Most often I would expect my book to be the least expensive option on the Internet taking into account an appropriate comparison(what is the condition, is the dust jacket present, is the book signed, is it a first printing, etc.). More important than selling the book I want to make sure that you know, as much as is possible, exactly what you are getting. To that end, you'll notice that my descriptions of condition tend to be lengthy, and that there will always be photographs to help you draw your own conclusions. Please feel free to contact me with any questions about a given book. As regards international shipping, the first class or standard rates I charge are based on a package weight between 2 and 3 pounds. If the book is on the thin side there is a possibility that I can securely pack it up under 2 pounds in weight. If so, the shipping price will drop by around $11.00 or $12.00 to $26.00-27.00. Canada, which is less expensive drops to $18.00. You can contact me before purchasing a book for an estimate on the shipping cost. If you buy the book and it weighs in below 2 pounds you'll get a Reduced Shipping message and amount with the invoice and you'll see the lowered final cost before you make your payment.…
