Sport in South Asian Society : Past and Present
ISBN: 9780415359535 / Angielski / Twarda / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Drawing inspiration from C.L.R.

This volume was previously published as a special issue of the journal "Sport in the... Drawing inspiration from C.L.R. James' well-known epigram, "What do they know of cricket who only cricket know?" the book suggests that South Asian sp...
