{"product_id":"hidden-history-of-ridgefield-connecticut-jack-sanders-9781540202512","title":"Hidden History of Ridgefield, Connecticut","description":"Time nearly erased many astounding tales and unexpected anecdotes from Ridgefield's history. Its colorful characters include a widow who built a landmark Manhattan hotel, her neighbor who invented one of the first \"helicopters\" and a CIA operative who helped one thousand Americans flee Saigon at the end of the Vietnam War. Lesser known are the stories of the Ridgefield artists who gave the world Superman and Lowly Worm and brought the Wild West to life. One local writer helped make Hawthorne famous, while another penned thousands of hymns still sung around the globe. Join retired newspaper editor Jack Sanders as he uncovers nearly forgotten people and moments of Ridgefield's past.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jack Sanders\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1540202518\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781540202512\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History Press Library Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/10\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 146\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.81lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.38d","brand":"Jack Sanders","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43991545020671,"sku":"9781540202512","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_632fe90f-52cc-4cd7-b9b1-e9f5ae9e611f.jpg?v=1683310899","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hidden-history-of-ridgefield-connecticut-jack-sanders-9781540202512","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
