British North America in the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries
ISBN: 9780198794653 / Angielski / Miękka / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

It has also become common place to announce that the history of America is best accounted for in America itself in a three-way melee between "settlers," the indigenous populations,...
