Cudzojazyčná / Anglická

In the countryside of western France, one of the most backward parts of the country, rebellion broke out in March, 1793...This was the rebellion of the Vendée, and its gory story has often been told. Professor Tilly does not attempt a new description: he gives us, rather, a socio-economic analysis of the circumstances leading up to the rebellion, placing political developments in novel and suggestive sociological perspective...Professor Tilly provides not diverting relaxation but intellectual pleasure. His is an important book. Clarity, sense of humor and the avoidance of any kind of jargon make it also singularly readable... v angličtine, brožovaná, 373 strán

The World Rapers

Spisovatel: Black Jonathan, Mayflower 1975
Katalogové číslo: G9384

"Rapers" follows the rise and fall of Jemel "Jimmy" Karami, a brilliant and utterly amoral Lebanese businessman.

The story opens in the late 1960's - with Jimmy's position brought to the brink by a Beirut banking crisis in late 1966. The "Six-Day War" only exacerbates the situation for Karami, who lives by making constant deals bankrolled by deposits in his Beirut bank.... malý formát, brožovaná, v angličtine, 464 strán

Katalogové číslo: M611

It was perfect place for an ambush. The hill commanded a clear view of the road for several miles. There was good cover on its wooded summit, where the ash and beech and durmast oak were in full leaf, to muffle the sounds from the small encampment... v angličtine, brožovaná, menší formát, 255 strán
