{"product_id":"family-business-ged-melia-9781839750632","title":"Family Business: The Story of a Generation","description":"\u003cp\u003eAlthough brothers, Edward and Thomas are two very different characters. Thomas is the responsible, churchgoing family man while Edward is the black sheep; selfish, hedonistic and craving excitement. Betraying both his wife, Gladys, and his mistress, Evelyn, who bears his illegitimate child, he settles for a time with Marcella, a London night club singer. But he wanted more. Some dubious second hand car deals eventually lead to a court appearance and three years in Wakefield Prison. His behaviour rocks the world of his hardworking Catholic family, scandalising his sister-in-law, Catherine, who cannot forgive him for the shame the episode brought. Set in Lancashire during the interwar and post war years, 'family business' is about an enterprising family aspiring to improve its lot through building a road haulage business. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ged Melia\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1839750634\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781839750632\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Grosvenor House Publishing Limited\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/25\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 436\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.21lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.97d","brand":"Ged Melia","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48486158795007,"sku":"9781839750632","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9ad2333a-09ba-469b-812d-633a69e003c8.jpg?v=1778054056","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/family-business-ged-melia-9781839750632","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
