Chekhov: The Hidden Ground
ISBN: 9781566631877 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 443 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Philip Callow s new biography of Russia s greatest dramatist and storyteller is a major achievement.

ISBN: 9780750964937 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 520 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) For 11 years, from his defeat at the Battle of the Boyne in July 1690 until his death in 1701, James II lived in one of the most spectacular baroque palaces in Europe, holding court as a king in exile.

This book reassesses James's strategy for dealing with his downfall and presents a portrait of a man who planned for himself great political rewards. That these plans...
