{"product_id":"the-emancipation-proclamation-monique-vescia-9781508104056","title":"The Emancipation Proclamation","description":"Though the Emancipation Proclamation is widely thought of as having brought an end to the despicable institution of slavery in the United States, the truth is a bit more complicated. The document actually freed slaves only in the lands in rebellion against the United States, so it had little immediate effect. That said, the proclamation did eventually free millions of people, enable African Americans to become Union soldiers, and make ending slavery one of the stated goals of the war. This volume explains how closely examining those sources gives us a better understanding of historical events and figures.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Monique Vescia\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1508104050\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781508104056\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rosen Education Service\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/30\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 32\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Library Binding\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 8.20w x 0.30d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2017 pg. 105","brand":"Monique Vescia","offers":[{"title":"Library Binding","offer_id":48518735397119,"sku":"9781508104056","price":32.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e21233cf-e186-4c79-9df1-3833ad17901a.jpg?v=1778735437","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-emancipation-proclamation-monique-vescia-9781508104056","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
