{"product_id":"saints-and-avengers-james-chapman-9781860647543","title":"Saints and Avengers: British Adventure Series of the 1960s","description":"Series like \"\"The Avengers\"\" and \"\"Danger Man,\"\" with their professional secret agents, or \"\"The Saint\"\" and \"\"The Persuaders,\"\" featuring flamboyant crime-fighters, still inspire mainstream and cult followings. \u003ci\u003eSaints and Avengers\u003c\/i\u003e explores and celebrates this unique television genre for the first time. James Chapman uses case studies to look at the thrillers' representations of national identity, and the world of the '60's and '70's. Chapman also asserts that this particular type of thriller was a historically and culturally defined generic type, with enduring appeal, as the current vogue for remaking them as big budget films attests.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James Chapman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1860647545\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781860647543\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/26\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.01lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.16h x 6.36w x 0.86d","brand":"James Chapman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44129640481023,"sku":"9781860647543","price":35.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c1e8765a-04f5-4e02-b976-32a29e46805b.jpg?v=1687465003","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/saints-and-avengers-james-chapman-9781860647543","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
