So I ordered this book from Abe Books.
You could choose from several trim/quality levels.
I chose the leather bound, oversized option, with ridges on spine, embossed cover, and ribbon.
It arrived today as good as advertised.
The book is freshly printed, but in a style from 200 years ago (eg., 1st page is coffee-stained/swirl wallpaper thick media, and the rest of the pages are of a beige color.
I will see if I can upload a couple pics.
Packing was excellent (extremely overdone, in a good way, so all the corners of a $100 book are sharp/square.
This was my first experience with Abe Books, and I give them a AA+
As regards the book, most of Vol. 1 was not translated (“The Jews Before the Revolution”), which contains very intriguing chapter titles, and I am guessing, also the most incriminating chapters.
Volume 2 is the majority of the translation, minus a suspiciously omitted chapter titled “Among the Bolsheviks.”
But I was aware of all this ahead of time.
Hopefully some day someone will translate the politically incorrect chapters, and the real Solzhenitsyn will become known.
How he never converted is beyond me (particularly in light of the miracle of his instantaneous cancer abatement once he promised God he would expose the Gulag system in the Archipelago).
See attachments for pics.
