{"product_id":"freehold-volume-ii-lee-ellen-griffith-9781531660543","title":"Freehold, Volume II","description":"Freehold, in the nineteenth century, enjoyed a period of tremendous growth and prosperity. The stately Victorian homes and commercial buildings that still line Main, Broad, and Brinkerhoff Streets in the center of town attest to that. A study of those architectural gems is offered here, as well as a section of studio portraits that show us the faces of the people who lived and worked in the area's beautiful buildings. In the early twentieth century, Freehold was still a thriving Main Street town, with room for both large industries like the Karagheusian Rug Mill and small family businesses. Known as a center for institutions of learning, Freehold boasted schools that drew students from around the country. One of those, the Freehold Young Ladies Seminary, is represented in this book by a charming group of candid photographs of students from the 1880s. On the opposite end of the social spectrum is a collection of snapshots from \"Camp Brakeley,\" which shows the summer field hands from inner city neighborhoods who were brought by Brakeley's Cannery \u003cbr\u003eto work in Freehold.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lee Ellen Griffith\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1531660541\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781531660543\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 11\/01\/1996\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":"Lee Ellen Griffith","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46250724262143,"sku":"9781531660543","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_857c25e3-46bb-4c8d-96b1-8de6acb88a8b.jpg?v=1729601205","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/freehold-volume-ii-lee-ellen-griffith-9781531660543","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
