ISBN: 9780295983158 / Angielski / Miękka / 632 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Marsh's devotion to the repair of nature, to the concerns of working people, to women's rights, and to historical stewardship resonate more than ever. His Vermont birthplace is now a national...

Carpenter (1877-1951) was Colorado's commissioner of interstate streams during a time when water rights were a legal battleground for western states.
