Book is sunned on the spine and part of the cover, but the binding is tight, the corners are square and the pages are clean and unmarked. Book has been very gently read, pages won't stay down.

The book is inscribed to the late Dean Guerin, internationally known investment banker and entepreneur (with his embossed stamp), and signed by the author on the front free end page.

About mark mcdonald
Book collector for over 30 years. I'm retired and ready to sell. I buy almost exclusively from estate sales and since I've lived in Dallas my whole life, I know the people and where to go. I am a low volume collector and seller and deal in higher quality books. I have a lot of signed and inscribed books. These signatures have not been officially authenticated, but I am confident in their authenticity so I will guarantee them in perpetuity if it can be reasonably demonstrated that the signature is incorrect. .
