Teenage capitalist girls have formed an investment group; a linotype operator, whose profession was wiped out by computers, finds a new life in an old century; a narrow gauge railroad, with a sit-down mower doubling as a locomotive, revolutionizes military transportation; the proud tradition of the U.S. Marines is started ahead of schedule among downtime Europeans; and what will the master musicians and composers of the pre-Bach era make of heavy metal sounds? On a more personal level, two young lovers celebrate Christmas in a strange land and time, a skilled blacksmith clashes with his guild, and a woman loses her husband in an industrial accident and decides to leave Grantville. Plus factual articles on the problems of beginning an oil industry, building a machine gun, or starting up the manufacture of textiles centuries ahead of their time. All this and more in a new and absolutely indispensable volume for the many followers of the \u003ci\u003e1632\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eseries.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Eric Flint\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1439133115\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781439133118\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Baen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/27\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 480\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.52lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.86h x 4.38w x 1.05d","brand":"Eric Flint","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43934994923775,"sku":"9781439133118","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_b1ca1e26-5771-41d2-a5e8-03d0b7a2295e.jpg?v=1681417242","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/grantville-gazette-iv-10-eric-flint-9781439133118","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
