Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
"
     Drawing on hundreds of richly textured interviews conducted from one
       end of the country to the other, veteran journalist Sanford J. Ungar documents
       the real-life struggles and triumphs of America's newest immigrants. He
       finds that the self-chosen who arrive every day, most of them legally,
       still enrich our national character and experience and make invaluable
       political, economic, social, cultural, and even gastronomic contributions.
     ""First-class journalism, a book scholars will use decades from now
       to find out what it 'felt like' to be an immigrant in the 90s. I do not
       know of a better description and analysis of contemporary immigration.""
       -- Roger Daniels, author of Coming to America: A History of Immigration
       and Ethnicity in American Life
     ""An excellent overview of contemporary immigration issues set within
       the context of developments in the past fifty years. Ungar makes a strong
       case for the contributions of recent immigrants and for maintaining a
       relatively open door in the face of sometimes shrill opposition.""
       -- Thomas Dublin, editor of Immigrant Voices: New Lives in America
     ""Exactly the right book at the right time. [Ungar] looks at the
       national controversy over immigration policy with a clear eye, producing
       a history and a convincing argument why this is no time to reverse a liberal
       welcome to newcomers that has always—in good times and bad—made
       this a better and more prosperous democracy."" -- Ben H. Bagdikian,
       author of Double Vision
