Literate, brilliantly perceptive and witty, James's travel writing lays fair claim to S.J. Perelman's mantle. In this collection of James's London Observer pieces he describes his visits to his native Australia, Moscow, Japan, Salzburg and Jerusalem, and such U.S. sites as New York, Los Angeles, Washington and Epcot Center.

From William Woodruff's birth in 1916 (in the carding room of a cotton mill) until he ran away to London at the age of sixteen, he lived in the heart of Blackburn's weaving community in the north of England. But after Lancashire's supremacy in cotton textiles ended with the crash of 1920, his father was thrown out of work. From then on, Billy and his family faced a life blighted by extreme poverty... v angličtine, brožovaná, 407 strán, na predsádkach žlté bodky

U-Boat the secret menace

Spisovatel: Mason David, Ballantine books 1971
Katalogové číslo: N4319

The struggle for the sealanes mounted to a climax in March 1943 when the U-Boats pounced on two transatlantic convoys bound for Britain. As the fast convoy HX229 of 40 ships caught up with the slow convoy SC122 of 54 ships, the two groups merged into one and their willing but wholly inadequate escorts were stretched beyond the limit... v angličtine, brožovaná, 160 strán
