Jim Harrison Books-I was a collector of JH books for many years, as he was a big figure in the literary landscape in rural Michigan during the late 70s and early 80s in my college years. I actually met him a few times, but I don’t come off well in any of those stories so I will let that bide. I have about 30 of his books, a good number 1st/1sts in VG or better condition, that I will have listed in the next week or so. If you are interested in his books, there’s a good chance I will have it, including some pretty scarce volumes. Check my other listings, and check back.*I do my best to give the information you might need to independently verify my attributions. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me for further bibliographic info on a particular listing.*For signed books-I have been collecting author-signed and association copies for many years. My collection includes books signed at author events, ones purchased at bookstores, and ones I have found on the secondary market (library/estate sales, used bookstores, etc.). I do not have COAs or independent authentications, but I do check any signatures against available sources, and do not list any that I find questionable. I encourage you, if interested in a signed book, to do the same. I am also happy to answer questions and provide more photos. And if there’s still a question in your mind then don’t buy it-I want you to be comfortable with your purchase.*The pictures and description are of the actual book(s) for sale or auction. I do not use generic or ambiguous descriptions. I try to be conservative in my assessments of condition, listing and providing pictures of significant faults. I would prefer that you be pleasantly surprised than to be disappointed with your purchase.If I make a mistake or miss a condition point, contact me and we will work it out. Although I don’t generally accept returns, of course I will do whatever I can to correct a problem, and returns always apply when I misattribute or fail to mention a significant condition issue.*I only ship in Boxes with multiple layers of protection for the book(s).I cannot ship to alternate addresses not in your profile, or delay shipping beyond the deadline required of me by eBay.*Most of my listings include Free Media Mail shipping to the US. For Global shipping, the shipping to the hub is done by Media Mail. I generally take packages to the post office personally and have them scanned in-this reduces shipping time, usually, and adds a little security.*Shipped from a smoke and pet free home.*Feel free to make reasonable offers, and I often discount books in sales, so you might want to add any books that interest you to your watchlist.
