2.0 out of 5 stars long delivery - not as promised, September 24, 2009

This review is from: Forging War: The Media in Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia, and Hercegovina (Paperback)

Was delivered after 5 weeks, and not according to what was promised. Only by looking at amazon's-where-is-my-stuff, did I realize that the delivery date had been postponed 5 more weeks. After a written complaint - something finally happened. The condition of the book was ok, as promised.
