{"product_id":"franklin-square-paul-van-wie-phd-9780738575896","title":"Franklin Square","description":"First settled in the 1600s, the present-day village of Franklin Square developed as a German-speaking farming community in the late 1800s. The fertile farmland of Franklin Square supplied New York City with all types of fresh produce into the mid-20th century, when waves of suburban growth transformed fields into residential neighborhoods. Franklin Square's rich history exemplifies the larger trends in America's history. George Washington visited in 1790, and the poet Walt Whitman taught in the local school in 1840. The Franklin Square National Bank invented a new type of walk-up window as well as the bank credit card, eventually becoming the 18th-largest bank in the United States. A native son orbited the earth on the space shuttle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul Van Wie Phd, Kiera Grassi, Hannah Mutum\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0738575895\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780738575896\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcadia Publishing (SC)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/03\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.50w x 0.50d","brand":"Paul Van Wie Phd","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44059582824703,"sku":"9780738575896","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3a316dd8-5c31-4657-acc3-2e3d0a7ce85c.jpg?v=1685059102","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/franklin-square-paul-van-wie-phd-9780738575896","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
