Limericks: Historical and Hysterical
ISBN: 9780393333046 / Angielski / Miękka / 1981 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) The limerick, one of the oldest and most challenging of verse forms, has traditionally been the plaything of Oxford dons, American academicians, and a sprinkling of men of wit. Historian Ray Allen Billington worked on his own collection for fifty years. Here is the cream of that collection--original and classical limericks, irreverent, spicy, funny, and, of course, suggestive.

The Historian's Contribution to Anglo-American Misunderstanding: Report of a Committee on National Bias in Anglo-American History Text Books
ISBN: 9781138194762 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 132 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book examines text books used in English and American schools and determines the way in which national bias has been instilled into school children by the use of history books. This study reveals that the deliberate distortion common a generation ago has disappeared, but has been displaced by a more subtle form of bias that is more dangerous because it is less easily recognised. It deals in particular with the treatment of the American War of Indepdendence, the War of 1812 and World War I. The report contains positive suggestions to authors and publishers designed to eliminate all...

America's Frontier Heritage
ISBN: 9780826303103 / Angielski / Miękka / 1975 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) The hypothesis advanced in Frederick Jackson Turner's famous 1893 essay, The Significance of the Frontier in American History, has been debated by three generations of scholars. The pioneering experience, Turner suggested, accounted for some of the distinctive characteristics of the American people: during three centuries of expansion their attitudes toward democracy, nationalism and individualism were altered, and they developed distinctively American traits, such as wastefulness, inventiveness, mobility, and a dozen more. After opening with a summary of the appearance, acceptance, and...
