{"product_id":"plainsboro-william-hart-9781531607692","title":"Plainsboro","description":"In the mid-twentieth century, Plainsboro was a quiet farm village with more cows than people. Today, it is a community of more than twenty thousand residents, beautiful homes, and thriving businesses. With nearly two hundred vintage photographs, Plainsboro takes the reader back to a simpler time and provides an opportunity to see life as it once was in this quaint agricultural town.\u003cp\u003eWith this volume, spanning a period from the late 1800s to the early 1970s, readers will meet the town's founding fathers, explore old dirt pathways that are today's tree-lined streets, and view the original structures of the village. Included are exciting and unexpected photographs of local research and experiments, such as hovercraft, a fusion plant, and a nuclear reactor; the famous Walker-Gordon Dairy; and the Rotolactor, a giant merry-go-round that could milk fifty cows at a time. Also featured is Plainsboro's most famous citizen, the very first Elsie the Cow, who lived at the Walker-Gordon farm. Plainsboro captures the town's history from its early, unassuming potato farms to the astounding government research conducted here just decades ago.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e William Hart, Bill Hart\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1531607691\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781531607692\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcadia Publishing Library Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/30\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 130\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.38d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"William Hart","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44124568879359,"sku":"9781531607692","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_55e189a7-22a3-4460-b270-0a3233326ab2.jpg?v=1687437551","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/plainsboro-william-hart-9781531607692","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
