Nice addition to my library. EPUB opened fine on Apple Books. Perfect commute read. 👍
Seamless purchase → library → download. Book itself is excellent too. Took notes while reading.
Better than expected. Islamic art & design, 1500-1700 held my attention most of the way through.
J.M. Rogers delivers. Wish there were more examples, but still a 4-star for me. Perfect commute read.
