Phil Sheridan and His Army
ISBN: 9780806131887 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 496 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. "Paul Hutton s study of Phil Sheridan in the West is authoritative, readable, and an important contribution to the literature of westward expansion. Although headquartered in Chicago, Sheridan played a crucial role in the opening of the West.
