Paper Quality of the book is extremely good. I think all imported edition books have better quality than the ones printed in India because my friend has came book but the quality of that book is not good. Book’s condition is mentioned as Like New which is absolutely correct.

I loved this book. LOVED it. Probably one of the best reads I have read this year. It was well written, and had a great message. I have read a lot of WWII books, and this was among the best.
