Lady Nugent's Journal: Jamaica One Hundred Years Ago
ISBN: 9781108024419 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 488 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The husband of Maria, Lady Nugent (1771 1834) was Governor of Jamaica from 1801 to 1806. Her diaries were not written for publication, and therefore offer a valuable and frank record of people and situations she met with in Jamaica. They were published privately after her death, and are here reproduced from the 1907 edition. The Jamaica diary covers a period of uncertainty in the West Indies due to the Napoleonic Wars.

ISBN: 9781784991401 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.
