Przez Urianchaj i Mongolię TW
ISBN: 9788375651836 / Polski / Twarda / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Książka Przez Urianchaj i Mongolię jest literackim owocem przeprawy Karola Giżyckiego przez Środkową Azję. W odróżnieniu od podróżującego w tym samym czasie po tym rejonie świata Ferdynanda Ossendowskiego, który opisał swe wrażenia w książce Przez kraj ludzi, zwierząt i bogów, Giżycki ściśle trzyma się faktów i nie ubarwia rzeczywistości. Jest mistrzem opisów przyrody i bystrym obserwatorem ludzkich zachowań. Niektóre z podpatrzonych przezeń scenek mówią o życiu ówczesnej Mongolii więcej niż niejedno naukowe opracowanie. Niniejsze wydanie książki...
