The American Elsewhere: Adventure and Manliness in the Age of Expansion
ISBN: 9780700624782 / Angielski / Twarda / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

As self-proclaimed avatars of American exceptionalism, Jimmy L. Bryan Jr. suggests in The American Elsewhere, adventurers transformed westward expansion into a project of romantic nationalism. A study of US expansionism from 1815-1848,...

ISBN: 9781551111087 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.
