In Search of a Better Life: British and Irish Migration
ISBN: 9780752459547 / Angielski / Twarda / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

They were largely opportunists rather than victims, whether financed by the state or by assistance from landlords or philanthropists, or, as by far the majority, by themselves or their families.This was a huge movement of people that formed part of a European migration to the...
