{"product_id":"the-dubuque-shot-tower-john-adelmann-9781609492564","title":"The Dubuque Shot Tower","description":"The George W. Rogers \u0026amp; Co. ShotTower claims the distinction of being Dubuque's most recognizable and enduring landmark. And while it only operated intermittently from 1856 to 1862, the Shot Tower continues to serve as a reminder of America's vibrant entrepreneurial spirit of the mid-1800s. To preserve this local legacy and position it in the larger narrative of our nation's past, students from Central Alternative High School in Dubuque invested a year of research in 2005-6 to tell the story. Their findings, combined with essays contributed by community experts, have been edited by John Adelmann into a first-of-its-kind book that presents a fascinating saga of the Shot Tower that has become greater than the sum of its myths and legends.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Adelmann\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1609492560\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781609492564\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/24\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.81lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.01h x 6.09w x 0.53d","brand":"John Adelmann","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46110726586623,"sku":"9781609492564","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_11388256-4de6-4321-806e-7a4d35dd92e2.jpg?v=1725469591","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-dubuque-shot-tower-john-adelmann-9781609492564","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
