{"product_id":"maritime-quarantine-john-booker-9781138274129","title":"Maritime Quarantine: The British Experience, c.1650-1900","description":"As a maritime trading nation, the issue of quarantine was one of constant concern to Britain. Whilst naturally keen to promote international trade, there was a constant fear of importing potentially devastating diseases into British territories. This groundbreaking study examines the methods by which British authorities sought to keep their territories free from contagious diseases, and the reactions to, and practical consequences of, these policies. Drawing upon a wealth of documentary sources, a vivid picture is painted of this controversial episode in British political and mercantile history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Booker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138274127\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138274129\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/03\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 644\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.96lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 1.30d","brand":"John Booker","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48444029141247,"sku":"9781138274129","price":73.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_71e4f4b3-746a-4c79-bec6-140234ea6b14.jpg?v=1777209515","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/maritime-quarantine-john-booker-9781138274129","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
