{"product_id":"bahai-temple-candace-moore-hill-9781531656089","title":"Baha'i Temple","description":"The Baha'i House of Worship sits on the shores of Lake Michigan, just 5 miles north of Chicago. How it came to be built in the heart of the United States is a story that begins with the World's Columbian Exposition in 1893. Inspired by news of the first Baha'i Temple in Ashgabat, Turkmenistan, members of the Chicago Baha'i House of Spirituality drafted a petition in 1903 asking for permission to begin their own. Fifty years later, in 1953, a completed Baha'i House of Worship was dedicated in Wilmette. The story of how very few believers in a new faith built the \"Great Bell\" of the North Shore--during the Great Depression and World War II years--is shown with archival photographs from every stage of construction up to the present. This includes ongoing restoration projects preserving the beauty of the \"Temple of Light.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Candace Moore Hill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1531656080\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781531656089\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcadia Publishing Library Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/18\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 130\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.38d","brand":"Candace Moore Hill","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43979953275135,"sku":"9781531656089","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f1ec9cc4-4deb-42b3-8b6b-ff8b183c481a.jpg?v=1683247551","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bahai-temple-candace-moore-hill-9781531656089","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
