Adventures of a Frontier Naturalist: The Life and Times of Dr. Gideon Lincecum
ISBN: 9780890966037 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 321 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Lincecum's experiences of following the frontier in the early 1800s, all the way from Georgia to Texas, were not so unusual in themselves, but the intellect and wit that inform his memoirs make them unique.

Lincecum portrays many aspects of frontier social life, including marriage and divorce, slavery as practiced by the small slaveholder, education, religion as critiqued...
