    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:

    Originally published in 1925, written by someone who was associated with the work of the League of Nations from the beginning, this concise book is a clear and short account of the structure, function and tasks of the League of Nations at the start of the Twentieth Century. The necessary historical background to the political landscape at the end of World War 1 is provided and the early chapters deal with The Peace Conference and the Covenant as well as the signing of the Treaty. Later chapters examine the role of the International Labour Organization, the Court of International Justice, The Geneva Protocol, economic and financial organization and the restructuring of Europe.
