The Enemy's Country: Words, Contexture, and Other Circumstances of Language
ISBN: 9780198112167 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Poetry has sometimes been credited with a special place as a form of conduct in language, as if it were a world of words of its own from which the poet masterfully dispenses a distinctly free speech.

ISBN: 9780195323467 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The last documented sighting of the Ivory-billed Woodpecker--one of the rarest and most intriguing animals in the world--was noted over 50 years ago. Long thought to be extinct, the 2005 announcement of a sighting in Arkansas sparked tremendous enthusiasm and hope that this species could yet be saved. But the subsequent failure of a massive search to relocate Ivorybills in Arkansas made hope for the species' revival short-lived.
Here, noted ornithologist Geoffrey Hill tells the story of how he and two of his colleagues stumbled upon what may be a breeding population of Ivory-billed...
