{"product_id":"montpelier-and-the-madisons-matthew-hyland-9781596292772","title":"Montpelier and the Madisons: House, Home and American Heritage","description":"A stately plantation in picturesque Orange County, Virginia, Montpelier has been home to many owners, but the period in which the Madison family occupied it remains the most intriguing. Historian Matthew G. Hyland traces the development of the plantation as it evolved and changed through three generations of Madisons - from beginnings as temporary quarters on the tobacco frontier of Piedmont Virginia to the height of fame as the noteworthy abode of the fourth United States President, James Madison. \u003cp\u003eThe history of the house and its grounds offers a glimpse into the private dilemmas and public struggles that mark the development of democracy and reflect the creation of the United States as a nation. Newly renovated and restored to the era President Madison lived and entertained there, the home stands as a testament to its great proprietor's interests and tastes, and as a witness to American history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Matthew Hyland\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1596292776\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781596292772\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/25\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.80h x 5.50w x 0.30d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Matthew Hyland","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43938541404415,"sku":"9781596292772","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_68811fb8-37a8-40f2-b27a-3960011d8391.jpg?v=1681436296","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/montpelier-and-the-madisons-matthew-hyland-9781596292772","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
