Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) In 1916, in the tiny West Texas town of Benjamin, a gunman slips into a courtroom and murders the defendant. In 1912, in Fort Worth s finest hotel, a young man kills an old gentleman in cold blood in the middle of the lobby. The verdict in both of these murderers trials? Not guilty. The explanation? This is Texas. Laws passed by politicians in far-off Austin meant little to Westerners living on the Texas frontier. Sagebrush justice relied less on written statutes than on common sense, grass-roots fairness, and vague notions of folk law drawn from the Old South s Victorian code of chivalry and...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) For nearly three decades, the settlers of Lampasas were challenged by frontier hardships and dangers.
