C. Vann Woodward, Southerner
ISBN: 9780820341064 / Angielski / Miękka / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The most influential historian of our time, C.

"C.... The most influential historian of our time, C. Vann Woodward has forged his place in American learning and culture from two sometimes opposing, som... |
