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.

MoreLong description:
Now in its fifth edition, The Canadian North continues to balance in-depth coverage of the history and geography of the North with current debates on the issues and challenges shaping the region today. Using a straightforward, accessible approach, Robert Bone traces the profound social, cultural, environmental, economic, and political changes occurring in northern Canada--including the effects of resource extraction, the impacts of climate change, and the advancements being made by the Aboriginal peoples who call this region home. Updated throughout to reflect recent developments, this insightful exploration of the Canadian North will help students fully appreciate the many challenges--as well as the potential opportunities--facing this fascinating region and its peoples.
