ISBN: 9781640126060 / Angielski / Twarda / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The ties that bound Abraham Lincoln to California, and California to Lincoln, have long been overlooked by historians.

In Lincoln and California Brian McGinty explains the relationship between the president and the Golden State, describing important events that took place in...

Cow Talk: Work, Ecology, and Range Cattle Ranchers in the Postwar Mountain West Volume 8
ISBN: 9780806191782 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The image of western ranchers making a stand for their “rights”—against developers, the government, “illegal” immigrants—may be commonplace today, but the political power of the cowboy was a long time in the making. In a book steeped in the culture, traditions, and history of western range ranching, Michelle K.

After long days working the ranch,...
