{"product_id":"the-immortal-beaver-sean-rossiter-9781550547245","title":"The Immortal Beaver: The World's Greatest Bush Plane","description":"Developed soon after World War II, the de Havilland Beaver has become one of the most successful and long-lived designs in aviation history. The Beaver was conceived as a \"half-ton flying pickup truck\" capable of setting down on land, water, and snow. Since its conception the Beaver has been adopted worldwide, becoming the floatplane of choice for island-hopping along the Pacific Northwest, flying into the Arctic, transporting missionaries and doctors into remote spots in Africa, and serving as a support aircraft in Antarctic expeditions. The Beaver also became \"the generals' Jeep\" during the Korean War -- and the generals' favorite transport to fishing spots in peacetime.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sean Rossiter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1550547240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781550547245\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Douglas \u0026amp; McIntyre\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/06\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.35h x 8.66w x 0.55d","brand":"Sean Rossiter","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43991591059711,"sku":"9781550547245","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7756fe8f-975b-494a-bcf8-35486883f166.jpg?v=1683311138","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-immortal-beaver-sean-rossiter-9781550547245","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
