The Urban Colonists: Italian American Identity and Politics in Utica, New York
ISBN: 9780815632382 / Angielski / Twarda / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The interdisciplinary collection situates the band in its historical moment of the 1960s, but argues for artistic innovation and cultural ingenuity that account for the Beatles' lasting popularity today. Along with theoretical approaches that bridge the...
