{"product_id":"rachel-carson-linda-lear-9780547238234","title":"Rachel Carson: Witness for Nature","description":"\u003cp\u003eRachel Carson's Silent Spring, published in 1962, did more than any other single publication to alert the world to the hazards of environmental poisoning and to inspire a powerful social movement that would alter the course of American history. This definitive, sweeping biography shows the origins of Carson's fierce dedication to natural science--and tells the dramatic story of how Carson, already a famous nature writer, became a brillant if reluctant reformer. Drawing on unprecendented access to sources and interviews, Lear masterfully explores the roots of Carson's powerful connection to the natural world, crafting a \" fine portrait of the environmentalist as a human being\" (Smithsonian). \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Linda Lear\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0547238231\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780547238234\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mariner Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 688\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 1.80d","brand":"Linda Lear","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44048489971967,"sku":"9780547238234","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d663e6c1-eaaf-47af-bc92-15033daf4384.jpg?v=1684996065","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/rachel-carson-linda-lear-9780547238234","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
