Marland was a man of paradox--an advocate of unhampered oil exploration but also a champion of oil conservation, a man who lived in luxury but espoused the common causes of his idol, Franklin D.

Condition: MOLTO BUONO. Milano, Rusconi cm.14x21, pp.468, Legatura editoriale con sovraccoperta figurata a colori. Collana La Sacra Pipa. Abitanti da tempi immemori nella zona del fiume Osage, gli Osage combatterono a lungo per mantenere il loro territorio contro le vicine tribù dei Washita e dei Pawnee, stabilendo ottimi rapporti nel corso del 1700 con i francesi, soprattutto gli esploratori, i cacciatori di pelli e i missionari gesuiti e resistendo successivamente agli spagnoli e agli americani. Il testo ripercorre la loro storia nell'arco di quattro secoli, accennando al periodo precolombiano e soffermandosi in particolare sul periodo della dominazione francese, certamente il più ricco di avvenimenti e di amichevoli rapporti fra le due culture. L'autore non manca però di integrare la loro storia con le successive relazioni con gli spagnoli e gli americani. Traduzione di Fabrizio Pezzoli.…
