A Yankee in Canada
ISBN: 9781943328321 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 150 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) In the fall of 1850 Henry Thoreau embarked upon an excursion into the French-Canadian province of Quebec, with stops in Montreal and Quebec City.
