An American Robinson Crusoe
ISBN: 9781421800868 / Angielski / Twarda / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

A Woman Tenderfoot
ISBN: 9781421803470 / Angielski / Twarda / 140 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Theoretically, I have always agreed with the Quaker wife who reformed her husband - "Whither thou goest, I go also, Dicky dear." What thou doest, I do also, Dicky dear. So when, the year after our marriage, Nimrod announced that the mountain madness was again working in his blood, and that he must go West and take up the trail for his holiday, I tucked my summer-watering-place-and-Europe-flying-trip mind away (not without regret, I confess) and cautiously tried to acquire a new vocabulary and some new ideas. Of course, plenty of women have handled guns and have gone to the Rocky Mountains on...

Writing Geographical Exploration: Thomas James and the Northwest Passage, 1631-33
ISBN: 9781552380628 / Angielski / Twarda / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Writing Geographical Exploration: Thomas James and the Northwest Passage, 1631-33 summarizes the various factors that influence the writing and interpretation of exploration narratives, demonstrating the limitations of the assumption that there is a direct relationship between what the explorer saw and what the text describes. Davies offers a revisionist evaluation of Captain Thomas James, who spent eighteen months in search of the Northwest Passage in the 1630s, to illustrate how modern textual analysis can enrich the appreciation of a traveller's account. Though James's work has been...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. -Dr. Livingstone, I presume?- The man who uttered those famous words was compared with Christopher Columbus in his day and became one of the late nineteenth century's most newsworthy figures. Yet, one hundred years after Henry Morton Stanley's death, his accomplishments in Africa have largely receded from public memory or have been discredited as epitomizing the wrongs inflicted by the scourge of European colonialism and its -scramble for Africa.- While numerous writers have attempted to describe the man, sometimes through highly speculative means, our understanding of the most notable aspect...
