{"product_id":"childs-history-of-england-9781434114327","title":"Child's History of England","description":"Why was Thomas a Becket murdered in Canterbury Cathedral? Who was Hereward the Wake? Was King Canute really trying to stop the tide? Interesting and informative, \"A Child's History of England\" takes readers on a fascinating journey, from Ancient England and the Romans to the reign of Queen Victoria. Full of gallant heroes and brutal villains, high adventure and terrible tragedy, it will appeal to anyone (including adults ) who enjoys a good story. As David Starkey wrote, \"In 'A Child's History' we see Dickens near the height of his powers: combining a mastery of plain language, sharp if sometimes heavy irony, and the keenest eye for evocative detail. . . . Dickens had no interest in serving up the bland fare that others may have felt more suitable for a child's palate--and less threatening to the status quo. His is sectarian history: radical, opinionated, and, to most readers, all the better for it.\" Newly formatted and typeset in a modern 6-by-9-inch format by Waking Lion Press.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Charles Dickens\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Waking Lion Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/08\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 328\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.43lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.88d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781434114327","brand":"Waking Lion Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44475420835955,"sku":"9781434114327","price":37.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_96b40089-7d91-4623-a290-d1fdb0607f23.jpg?v=1774355315","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/childs-history-of-england-9781434114327","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
