"To my knowledge, there are no books that offer a wide and diverse set of readings on work experience in America."

    Northwest Coast Discoveries was a pleasure to deal with. The listing for this book was very detailed and helpful (including video of flipping through the pages of a lightly used book). Seller provided great communication upon purchase and shipped the item immediately. Shipping time was quick. Packaging of the book was superb and even in plastic wrap (see picture). Great seller!
