Book Reviews of A Handbook to Literature

Book Review: Really fast delivery!
Summary: 5 Stars

My on-line class had already started and the books had not arrived. The campus bookstore couldn't give me any clue as to when their 'back-order' problem might be resolved. I was in a PANIC!!! Then I thought Amazon.com! I asked for overnight delivery and I got overnight delivery. I know of students who did not get their books until 3 weeks into the class. Thank you Amazon. Bobby A. Young
