To keep shipping costs as low as possible, we recommend placing smaller print book orders whenever practical. Orders that exceed our print partner's U.S. shipping weight limit may be fulfilled from a U.K. facility, resulting in significantly higher shipping charges. If you're purchasing several print books, placing two or more smaller orders will often reduce your shipping costs.
The Rope Bridge — Cusi stands at the eastern bank of the Inca road in February 1527 and sees immediately that the right handrail of the suspension bridge is gone. He is a road inspector — and a road inspector who cannot cross cannot inspect. The story is about what Cusi does with the information the bridge gives him about itself, and what that information costs to act on.
