SOME years ago my wife was in poor health, and our family doctor, in whose skill and honesty I had implicit confidence, advised a change of climate.

The doctor's advice was that we seek, not a temporary place of sojourn, but a permanent residence, in a warmer and more equable climate. I...

Eric Walrond: A Life in the Harlem Renaissance and the Transatlantic Caribbean
ISBN: 9780231157841 / Angielski / Twarda / 440 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

James Davis follows Walrond from the West Indies to Panama, New York, France,...
