Remembering the South African War: Britain and the Memory of the Anglo-Boer War, from 1899 to the Present
ISBN: 9781846319686 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 193 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

Through his connection with mysteries of state, Machiavelli influenced not only Renaissance political ideas, but the...
