Sobre este artículo

Baltimore, MD, U.S.A.: Gateway Press, 1989. Fine in a Fine dustjacket. Fully bound in blue cloth. The spine is stamped in gilt. 290pps., with numerous pages of photos. An excellent copy: clean, tight, square, and bright. All tips are sharp. The text is immaculate; no reading wear. The dustjacket, glossy in a mylar sleeve, is as new. This book is from the personal library of Colonel Harry A. Sheppard, one of America's first black fighter-pilots and a highly-decorated World War II Tuskegee airman; his bookplate is affixed to the front pastedown. SIGNED and inscribed by the author 'To My Friend, Harry, A Highly-Respected Tuskegee Airman,' on the ffep. A very nice, one-of-a-kind association copy.

"...This autobiography is assembled with the hope that it might provide continued inspiration for our children, and grandchildren to enjoy life, but to be fully prepared for their chosen careers. They should understand that it is important to set goals, and to work hard to achieve these goals. I hope that they can see that the position of a depressed lifestyle is only a dissolvable impediment, not an impenetrable wall, to achieving a determined goal.
My constant struggle for equal rights included participation in 'The March on Washington' on August 28, 1963. However, it has always been my premise that one-on-one contact, is a fundamental concept, that augments the overall struggle for understanding, and equality. When education, fair treatment, honest competition, and individual ability flourishes freely, we will see black faces and reciprocal contributions in all walks of American life. To me, that's America..." -- from the author's Preface.

Nooks Of Books


Payment Methods Accepted:
We accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover Card, and checks or money orders made out to Jeffrey C. Wright. You can also, if you like, make your payment -- credit card or bank transfer -- through Paypal.com (Acct name: nooksofbooks@comcast.net).

Grading:
Dealers who are otherwise members of prestigious bookselling organizations should know that you can\'t grade a book Fine if it\'s remaindered; nor can a dustjacket be graded Fine that is price-clipped. And yet we see this sort of thing -- more and more -- and from all manner of establishments. It reflects poorly on the industry.
Thus, we recommend that any prospective online customer insist on a thorough description (such as are issued through these Nooks) for any collectible item. We\'re well-versed, here, in the grading process and we do so fairly if not conservatively.

Refunds:
We understand all too well the hesitancy of some collectors to make their purchases online, particularly in such cases where books are scarce or costly. We, therefore, stress the integrity in these Nooks. Your satisfaction is guaranteed, or all costs you\'ve incurred will be refunded -- no questions asked -- providing the book is returned to us in the same condition within two weeks.

Shipping:
Though most booksellers are quite professional and know how to properly handle their wares, I\'ve noticed (being a book-buyer, too) that many online shops can be slipshod and amateurish in their shipping practices. This being so, we\'d like to assure you: when you buy from us the item will be nicely and securely presented. It will be gift-wrapped, sealed in a plastic bag to protect it against water damage, encased in bubble wrap and/or foam \'peanuts\' and boxed. We ship books out the way we like to receive them. Except, perhaps, in the rare occasion of an inexpensive reading copy, I\'d not think of consigning a book from these Nooks to the hard knocks of the postal system in a simple bubble-mailer. You won\'t get that shoddy handling here.

Insurance:
It is our policy to pay the insurance for any purchase over $200.00. Should you like to provide your own insurance for less of a sum, the cost is $1.30 for $50.00 of coverage, $2.20 for $100.00, and $3.20 for up to $200.00 of coverage. Insurance, in such cases, is suggested (simply state your preference in the comments segment during checkout) as we cannot be responsible for books that are lost in transit.
