Amazing!!

I bought this collection of books for my husband who is a WW11 ‘fanatic!’ His father was a prisoner of war so he has always been interested. I could not believe the quality of the books in this box, they are outstanding! I cannot recommend the Book Grocer enough we will definitely be returning when the box needs ‘replacing’ Brilliant work, can’t praise you enough.
