Roman History from Coins: Some Uses of the Imperial Coinage to the Historian
ISBN: 9780521095495 / Angielski / Miękka / 1968 / 132 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Professor Grant astutely masters his difficult and complex subject matter, producing a brief exposition of it in words which the general reader and specialist alike can understand and profit from. Complemented...

From Rome to Byzantium : The Fifth Century AD
ISBN: 9780415825191 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

But in the age of Facebook, Twitter and cell phone texting, personal communication doesn't stand a chance. Or does it?
