{"product_id":"bloomingdale-annamarie-erickson-9781531632434","title":"Bloomingdale","description":"This photographic journal traces Bloomingdale's development chronologically from its earliest days through its sesquicentennial celebration. The area claimed in 1833 by the Meacham brothers, who traveled from the east in search of land and opportunities, encompassed parts of present-day Roselle, Medinah, and Cloverdale. The Meacham brothers and those who followed formed an agricultural community that thrived in its location on a major thoroughfare, the Chicago Galena Highway. Retail was an important part of Bloomingdale by the time the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railroad came through the northern part of Bloomingdale Township in 1873. Largely \"Smalltown, USA\" for a number of years, Bloomingdale came into its own in the mid-1970s with an explosion of population, business, and prosperity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Annamarie Erickson, Mary Ellen Johnson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1531632432\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781531632434\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 03\/05\/2008\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":"Annamarie Erickson","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44129475330303,"sku":"9781531632434","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_66a2580c-6635-4b21-ba04-8926ffd0727f.jpg?v=1687464109","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bloomingdale-annamarie-erickson-9781531632434","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
