{"product_id":"9781684420186","title":"Historic Photos of Wilmington (Historic Photos)","description":"\u003cp\u003eFor a century after its incorporation in 1740, Wilmington, North Carolina remained a sleepy port city. Then, the coming of steam-power, especially railroad and steamship, enabled a steady growth. War, whether the Civil War with its blockade-runners or the shipbuilding born of the world conflicts of the 1900s, brought more growth. With that expansion came, of course, growing pains. The story of Wilmington, North Carolina is a story of rivers, sounds, and sea, and of a city that grew near the places where those waters mingled. It is the story of a port that became the \"Lifeline of the Confederacy\" as well as the lifeline of a state. And in this case, it is the story of over a hundred years of history (1860s to 1970s) told through almost two hundred photographs—the captured essences of people and events now lost.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Turner Publishing Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48215781245163,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":76.89,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9781684420186-1.jpg?v=1781699501","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/ja\/products\/9781684420186","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
