Publishing Info
Resources for Practicing Research by Robert Perrin. From the B printing by Houghton Mifflin Company in 1987. The ISBN is 0-395-39069-9. This paperback book measures about 11″ x 8-1/4″ and has 250 numbered pages, ending with the Credits.

Condition
See photo above. Some lighter handling/storage on the covers.The spine has not been opened/creased but there is some crosswise stress about center. No evidence this book was ever used. No names or markings found. The top right corner of back few pages got wet as some point so there is a light stain and ripple there. This will not affect your use. From clean, smoke-free home.

Shipping
Generally sent the same day payment arrives. Unless you request otherwise, I will wrap the book in plastic wrap to help protect it from the elements, tightly sandwich it between pieces of cardboard, then wrap in brown paper to send via Media Mail with Delivery Confirmation tracking. See the shipping page for the cost to send a one-pound Media Mail package. Insurance is an additional cost as described. I am delighted to combine postage and insurance costs if you purchase more than one item. The second item may travel for free or just a few cents more — so it’s worth taking a look at my other items before you complete your order.
