{"product_id":"forgotten-tales-of-long-island-richard-panchyk-9781596293816","title":"Forgotten Tales of Long Island","description":"In this enthralling new book, Richard Panchyk has compiled a collection of true stories from Long Island's history sure to befuddle, baffle and bemuse even lifelong residents. Who knew that Plum Island was bought with a barrel of biscuits and a few fishhooks? Or that an Oyster Bay woman accused of being a witch was instead found guilty of being a Quaker? Little-known tales of snake-eyed horses, naked ghosts, swamp serpents and cats riding horses offer a fresh look at Long Island's past. Culled from numerous period sources, including newspapers, books and historical records, these little stories are notable both as entertaining anecdotes and as forgotten history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard Panchyk\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1596293810\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781596293816\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.32lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.79h x 4.97w x 0.47d","brand":"Richard Panchyk","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43938542092543,"sku":"9781596293816","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_dc9017a5-8e68-4146-9d98-cc3a383c9acd.jpg?v=1681436300","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/forgotten-tales-of-long-island-richard-panchyk-9781596293816","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
