Purchased at school. It did not originally come with a cover. - Title: New Comprehensive Japanese Language Guide - Author: Susumu Nakanishi - Edition: 5th Revised Edition - Publisher: Kyoto Shobo - Price: 943 yen (tax included) The front and back covers show signs of use, but the contents are in good condition with no writing (please forgive any oversight). Shipping to areas south of Shikoku will automatically be handled by surface mail, which takes several days to arrive (as the book is being shipped from Hokkaido). Please be aware of this if you need it urgently for classes, etc.
