Negative Positive
Title: fell apart!
Review: i want to preface this review as nothing negative about Ritchie's work. he is recognized as an essential author to anybody who studies or works in archaeology in new york state. the negative review has to do with the publishing company and their poor standards of how a book should physically be put together.i work in archaeology so i was hoping to use this book, as many do, as a field reference guide. unfortunately before even taking it into the field i realized that this book wasn't going to survive very long sitting on a book shelf let alone being used in the field. the very first time i opened the book the binding gave up and pages started falling out left and right. i ended up putting a comb binding on the book just to make it usable. so if you're buying this version just be aware that there may be some assembly required.
Is the review positive or negative?
