Ireland's Holy Wars: The Struggle for a Nation's Soul, 1500-2000
ISBN: 9780300092813 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 530 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

Travelling throughout the remote Celtic world, award-winning author Marcus Tanner describes the relentless pressure on Celtic communities to assimilate and warns that a distinct Celtic identity may not survive for another generation--a sobering loss that would impoverish us all.
