This meant finding a good job ashore. This second volume of memoirs is about his futile attempts to achieve this. He toiled in a fish plant, took a soul-destroying job as a salesman, even worked in an ice cream factory where he was fired for dropping the flavour of the month onto the...

ISBN: 9780774815338 / Angielski / Miękka / 403 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The state and private enterprise imported southern scientists and sojourning labourers to work the Northwest, and its industrial history bears these newcomers' imprint. The Industrial Transformation of Subarctic Canada reveals the history...

Roughing it in the Bush: Or, Life in Canada
ISBN: 9781108033619 / Angielski / Miękka / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.
