{"product_id":"the-loss-of-the-kent-general-duncan-macgregor-9781006689741","title":"The Loss of the Kent East Indiaman in the Bay of Biscay (Esprios Classics)","description":"The Kent was an East Indiaman, a vessel sailing for the British East India Company, and launched in 1820. She completed two voyages to Bombay and China for the Company and was on her third voyage, to Bengal and China, when a fire in the Bay of Biscay destroyed her. Her captain for all three voyages was Henry Cobb. The loss of the Kent was highly newsworthy and led a number of artists to paint their own versions of the tragedy. In addition to William Daniell, artists that dealt with the tragedy included Théodore Gudin, Thomas Marie Madawaska Hemy (1874-1931), and an anonymous lithographer whose \"Loss of the Kent\" is in the National Maritime Museum, as are a number of other renditions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e General Duncan MacGregor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1006689745\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781006689741\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Blurb\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/29\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 50\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.19lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.12d","brand":"General Duncan MacGregor","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48742436471039,"sku":"9781006689741","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-loss-of-the-kent-general-duncan-macgregor-9781006689741","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
