{"product_id":"two-little-confederates-9780692376676","title":"Two Little Confederates","description":"This is a delightful fictional account of two ten-year-old boys' adventures and escapades while living at home in rural Virginia during the War Between the States. They are innocent of modern day attitudes, and the story is sympathetic to both sides of the conflict in the sense that war is difficult for both sides involved. The relationships are heart-warming and real and the boys demonstrate budding character traits of honorable young men.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thomas Nelson Page\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Confederate Reprint Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/14\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 156\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.51w x 0.33d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780692376676\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThomas Nelson Page was born on April 23, 1853 at the Oakland plantation in Hanover County, Virginia, a descendent of the prominent Nelson and Page families. A mere boy of eight when the War Between the States erupted, his once-wealthy family was impoverished by the war and especially the Reconstruction era. He graduated from the University of Virginia Law School in 1874 and was admitted to the bar in 1876. He practiced law in Richmond until 1893, when he moved to Washington, D.C. and began his career as a writer. Many of Page's boyhood experiences on the plantation and during the tumultuous years of the 1860s and 1870s would later find their way onto the pages of his literary works, both fiction and non-fiction. He popularized the \"Plantation Tradition\" of writing, which told a stylized version of antebellum Southern life. His 1887 collection of short stories entitled, In Ole Virginia, is considered the quintessential work of the genre. Under President Woodrow Wilson, Page was appointed as U.S. ambassador to Italy and he served in that capacity from 1913 to 1919, when he resigned due to failing health and returned to live out the remainder of his years at his birthplace in Virginia. He died at Oakland plantation from heart and kidney disease on November 1, 1922, and was buried at Rock Creek Cemetery in Washington, D.C.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Confederate Reprint Company","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40094111596659,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":11.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_e218c269-3c44-4a6e-aa40-30a36a0397fc.jpg?v=1652884842","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/two-little-confederates-9780692376676","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
