At first glance the book looks nicely made.
Under the shiny dust jacket hides not so impressive paper hardcover .
And then you can see the most important thing for the book lovers. Smyth sewn binding.

Gluing was not so efficient. Peace of cloth on the spine peeled off....
... on both sides immediately. But nothing that can not bee fixed with little glue carefully applied.
The question is how long will it last ?
