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.

Given that Major-General Shujaat Zamir Dar has been interested in the natural and architectural history of the country since he was a young boy and that he has implemented a successful conservation project...it should come as no surprise that he was asked to write a book on the history and architecture of Bahawalpur by the Islamia University in Bahawalpur... A pictorial journey into the past, Sights in the Sands of Cholistan: Bahawalpur's History and Architecture
explores the thousand-year-old civilisation of the city that stretches along the southern bank of the Sutlej and Indus River... The most enchanting section of the book, which virtually takes the reader's breath away, is the stunning photography that accompanies the text on the Abbasid palaces.
