ISBN: 9781906011178 / Angielski / Miękka / 166 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Rumors of subversion and the intrigues of foreign powers mingled with the unsettling smell of oil to propel the sultan on a royal progress across the desert hinterland. It was an historic journey--the first crossing of the Omani desert by motorcar. Jan Morris...
