Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Illinois 24/7 (Hardcover)
EXCELLENT!!! I ordered several 24/7 books new and used.Then ordered covers from the 24/7 web site with pictures of family members. Many with old candid long forgotten pictures. These were given to family members from Coast to Coast. Even though I wasn't with my family for the holidays I was a hit at every gathering. For the uniqueness and the thoughtfulness of the Gift.
