British Lions and Mexican Eagles: Business, Politics, and Empire in the Career of Weetman Pearson in Mexico, 1889a 1919
ISBN: 9780804774451 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Between 1889 and 1919, Weetman Pearson became one of the world's most important engineering contractors, a pioneer in the international oil industry, and one of Britain's wealthiest men. At the center of his global business empire were his interests in Mexico. While Pearson's extraordinary success in Mexico took place within the context of unprecedented levels of British trade with and investment in Latin America, Garner argues that Pearson should be understood less as an agent of British imperialism than as an agent of Porfirian state building and modernization. Pearson was able to secure...

Porfirio Diaz
ISBN: 9781138144255 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The fall of Porfirio Diaz has traditionally been presented as a watershed between old and new: an old style repressive and conservative government, and the more democratic and representative system that flowered in the wake of the Mexican Revolution. Now this view is being challenged by a new generation of historians, who point out that Diaz originally rose to power in alliance with anti-conservative forces and was a modernising force as well as a dictator. Drawing together the threads of this revisionist reading of the Porfiriato, Garner reassesses a political career that spanned more...

Storm Below
ISBN: 9781554884568 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Originally published in 1949, Storm Below tells the story of a fictional Royal Canadian Navy ship and its crew. The adventure unfolds over six days of an escort run across the Atlantic Ocean to Newfoundland during the Second World War. The ship, the HMCS Riverford, is a composite of the vessels, mostly corvettes, that author Hugh Garner served on during his time in the Canadian navy, and the Canadian sailors whose experiences he relates are masterfully drawn from the crewmen he knew during his months at sea. Originally published in 1949, Storm Below tells the story of a fictional Royal Canadian Navy ship and its crew. The adventure unfolds over... |

Porfirio Diaz
ISBN: 9780582292673 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 269 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Porfirio Diaz, President of Mexico (1876-1880 and 1884-1911) dominated his country during a crucial phase of its development into a modern nation. The political rule of Porfirio Diaz has mostly been viewed from the perspective of the Mexican Revolution which finally toppled him from power - holding that he was the cause of, and deserved, his own downfall. But Diaz has recently come to be seen in a rather different and less damning light. Nineteenth-century Latin American history shows the problem of promoting wider political participation and economic development whilst maintaining order and...

Nationalism and Transnationalism in Spain and Latin America, 1808-1923
ISBN: 9781783169719 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The long nineteenth century was a time of powerful tensions in the Hispanic Atlantic corridor, with Latin American republics, many newly independent, clashing repeatedly with Spain and its interests. But that was only part of the story, as this collection reveals. Though debates were fierce, there was nonetheless crucial ongoing dialogue between the Spanish intelligentsia and that of the Latin American republics, ensuring that ideas and innovations flowed between the nations and further cemented their cultural ties even as their political ones became more attenuated.

Cornerstones: Subterranean writings; from Dartmoor to the Arctic Circle
ISBN: 9781908213631 / Angielski / Twarda / 2019 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Although mostly concealed, our bedrock geology profoundly determines what we see around us - not just our landforms, but the built environment too, from Aberdeen, often called the "granite city" to Bath, constructed from honey-coloured limestone- rocks shape the world around us. In Cornerstones, some of Britain's leading landscape and nature writers consider their relationship with the ground beneath their feet. Distinguished by a strong sense of place and close observation, these essays take the reader out into the landscape and convey the tactile heft, grain and rub of the rock, showing how...
