{"product_id":"the-story-of-boston-richard-gurnham-9780750955737","title":"The Story of Boston","description":"Founded shortly after the Conquest of 1066, Boston rapidly grew to become the most successful English port outside of London. The growth of the wool trade in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries led to the building of St Botolph's, the largest parish church in the country. During the seventeenth century the town was strongly Puritan, causing some inhabitants to emigrate to America tofound the new city of Boston, Massachusetts. Some of the Pilgrim Fathers were imprisoned in the medieval Guildhall, which survives to this day. Boston's story is brought right up to date, celebrating the complete history of this fabulous Lincolnshire town in a volume that will delight locals and visitors alike.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard Gurnham\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0750955732\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780750955737\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/03\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Richard Gurnham","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49096696725759,"sku":"9780750955737","price":33.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-story-of-boston-richard-gurnham-9780750955737","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
