The Pig War: The United States, Britain, and the Balance of Power in the Pacific Northwest, 1846-1872
ISBN: 9780739107294 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Very few people have heard of the 'Pig War, ' since this episode in American history was overshadowed by the U.S. Civil War and the beginning of mass immigration from Europe.

Scott Kaufman carefully examines, and places into both an American and an international context, the origins and the resolution of this tense stand-off over contested colonial territory. His story not only...

ISBN: 9780700625000 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Within eight turbulent months in 1974 Gerald Ford went from the United States House of Representatives, where he was the minority leader, to the White House as the country's first and only unelected president.
