Thank you so very much. It came on time, and in perfect condition. I wasn't sure at the time, but now I am glad this comes in hardback. I'll be carrying it everywhere to study as much as possible and can see how much use it will get over the next year. Thank you again.
I have used this plotter for a long time. It make charting very simple because everything is in one place. I am an instructor and many of my students have bought one.
