{"product_id":"a-desert-drama-sidney-paget-9781717161512","title":"A Desert Drama: Being The Tragedy Of The \"Korosko\"","description":"Written in 1898, Arthur Conan Doyle's classic tale of high adventure portrays an alarmist era of imperial sovereignty, invasive foreign policy, and religious extremism, positing the naivety of a group of Anglo-American holiday-makers against the unbending convictions of Middle Eastern banditti. Among others, a young American ingenue, her matronly aunt, a fusty old bachelor, a loving Irish couple, and an opinionated French graduate gather aboard the Korosko. But during a morning tour of the desert, they are taken hostage by a group whose intention it is either to convert them to Islam or to kill them. Conan Doyle brings his mastery of thrills and suspense to bear on this extraordinary tale of East meets West. Scottish-born writer and novelist Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is best remembered as the creator of the immortal detective Sherlock Holmes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sidney Paget, Arthur Conan Doyle\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1717161510\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781717161512\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/19\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.58lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.41d","brand":"Sidney Paget","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46420314095871,"sku":"9781717161512","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_db85af9e-a075-4b9f-a8fa-4203009c3d31.jpg?v=1734634268","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-desert-drama-sidney-paget-9781717161512","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
