Took about two weeks to receive my copy by USPS Media Delivery. (This is the "slow boat from China" method!)
My initial impressions of print quality - including both text and the many numerous grayscale photos - was very favorable. Lulu offers a unique service to writers and the reading public and this book is an excellent example of what they can turn out.

So far, everyone who has received a copy of this book has been delighted with the quality of the print, the many illustrations and the wealth of information presented. For those who purchase both "Sky and Telescope" and "Astronomy" magazines each month for their current observing tips and information - you'll love this book! Rather than spend $144 annually at the newsstand, for $20 plus shipping a whole year of information is at your fingertips.
Although the e.book version is still a free download, it would cost in excess of $20 to print it out as daily worksheets. Our astronomy club has purchased several copies of this book and we appreciate knowing what lunar features can be seen on any given night - as well as a myriad of other objects that help club members towards attaining their Astronomy League studies.
It's great!

I have yet to receive my copy but shipping was something like 4 USD USPS media rate delivery.
This is a wonderful book but the postage of $9plus is too much and I will not pay this much.
