Omg. I promise the book is not curved weird anywhere. My phone keeps distorting uploaded photos. 😭😭 Good used condition. Some wear and small tears to the top of the dust jacket. Hard cover in excellent condition. I did remove my co-workers address sticker on the first title page and that left some damage to it. She's our tenant nurse, so figure I shouldn't be sharing that, but bonus she totally approves this book. Some highlighting on the last few pages. Few smudges and the start of foxing on the top page edges. Actually a really information filled guide and great starting info for general herbal knowledge. 15/10 recommend. 😁
