The Fateful Year : England 1914
ISBN: 9780670919222 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Fateful Year by Mark Bostridge is the story of England in 1914. War with Germany, so often imagined and predicted, finally broke out when people were least prepared for it. Here, among a crowded cast of unforgettable characters, are suffragettes, armed with axes, destroying works of art, schoolchildren going on strike in support of their teachers, and celebrity aviators thrilling spectators by looping the loop.

Testament of Youth
ISBN: 9780143039235 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 688 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Now a major motion picture starring Alicia Vikander and Kit Harington
Much of what we know and feel about the First World War we owe to Vera Brittain's elegiac yet unsparing book, which set a standard for memoirists from Martha Gellhorn to Lillian Hellman.
