Belfast Boys: How Unionists and Nationalists Fought and Died Together in the First World War
ISBN: 9781847250087 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This is the story of men from either side of West Belfast's sectarian divide during the Great War. Richard S. Grayson follows the volunteers of the 36th and 16th divisions who fought on the Somme and side-by-side at Messines, recovering the forgotten West Belfast men throughout the armed forces, from the retreat at Mons to the defeat of Germany and life post-war. In so doing, he tells a new story which challenges popular perceptions of the war and explains why remembrance remains so controversial in Belfast today.

Write-in: Diary of a Congressional Candidate in Florida's Fourth Congressional District
ISBN: 9780615141114 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 126 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Originally published as a recurring feature at the McSweeney's website, Richard Grayson's diary wryly chronicles the hopeless 2004 campaign of an emo-loving vegetarian fiction writer, the sole opponent to a right-wing incumbent in Florida's most Republican congressional district. Supporting socialized medicine, abortion rights, gay marriage and immediate withdrawal from Iraq, write-in Democrat Grayson jokes his way through a quixotic campaign to wind the hearts and minds of those North Florida voters who possess hearts and minds. "A fascinating diary." - Stephen Elliott

ISBN: 9780714650920 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This work shows the importance of analyzing the low politics of areas that have traditionally been dominated by high politics. The role of bodies such as the Liberal Summer School and the Women's Liberal Federation are examined, along with the work of thinkers such as JM Keynes and Ramsay Muir. The text should make two major contributions to our knowledge of the role of international relations in British politics in the inter-war years. First, by analysing the Liberal Party's principles and policies on international relations, it offers a perspective on British Liberalism. Second, by...

British Politics: A Beginner's Guide
ISBN: 9781780748788 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. No one saw it coming. No pundit, no pollster and no political leader predicted David Cameron's Conservative Party would win a majority of seats in Parliament and his three main opponents would resign as party leaders. The consequences of the coalition also became clear as the Liberal Democrats fell dramatically from grace, and lost their spot as Britain's third party. And despite Scotland voting 'NO' to independence in 2014, the election result also threatens the Union, with the Scottish National Party winning all but three of the country's seats. In this timely edition, Richard S....
