{"product_id":"in-search-of-lost-roses-thomas-christopher-9780226105963","title":"In Search of Lost Roses","description":"Once upon a time-before the 1860s-people loved old roses like \"Pearl of Gold,\" \"Marchionesse of Lorne,\" or \"Autumn Damask.\" Then along came the hybrid tea roses, which were easier to arrange, more dramatic, and longer-blooming, and the old roses were all but forgotten. Now the lovely, subtle-hued, richly perfumed old roses are making a comeback, thanks to the efforts of a stubborn band of eccentric characters who rescued them from back alleys, ramshackle cottages, and overgrown graveyards across the country. Thomas Christopher tells us the fascinating stories of the old roses-how they were created and made their way to America-and the unforgettable people who \"rustle\" them from abandoned lots and secret gardens today, revelling in the mystery of an \"unknown yellow.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thomas Christopher\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0226105962\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780226105963\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Chicago Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.56lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.94h x 5.36w x 0.51d","brand":"Thomas Christopher","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43994076020991,"sku":"9780226105963","price":17.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5f1dda81-99df-4e60-9a31-ee3d8f834ce4.jpg?v=1683327991","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/in-search-of-lost-roses-thomas-christopher-9780226105963","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
