Robert McMahon, U of Texas at Arlington Praise for the Third EditionAnybody interested in the evolution of the Earth and its living organisms, especially animals, will find the content of this book useful and interesting.

- i***r (41)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoI bought a hardcover copy of Smoke Bitten. The listing noted that it could be a library copy, and that it would take 5 business days to come. It came in 3 business days (+wknd was 5 days total) in an envelope, and was a library copy. Bc I knew it was a discard, I was anticipating rough condition, but it was in very good condition, with only one small ding on the front cover. For the price I paid, I am very happy with the book and the service. I would buy from this seller again.
