Agincourt: Henry V and the Battle That Made England
ISBN: 9780316015042 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Waged almost six centuries ago, the Battle of Agincourt still captivates.

Populated with chivalrous heroes, dastardly spies, and a ferocious and bold king, AGINCOURT is as earthshaking as its subject--and confirms Juliet Barker's status as both a...
