Recenzje

'I would recommend this book to those that are interested in maritime law, those interested in the refugee crisis, and those looking for a good read in general. Mann made great arguments and I learned about several events and atrocities that I hadn't heard of before.' Ashlee N. Williams, AmeriQuests (www.ameriquests.org)
