{"product_id":"wicked-akron-kymberli-hagelberg-9781540224026","title":"Wicked Akron: Tales of Rumrunners, Mobsters and Other Rubber City Rogues","description":"The searchlight finds Akron's darkest days, when citizens burned city hall to the ground and members of the Ku Klux Klan called the shots from the schoolhouse to the courthouse. Meet a grave robber who became a political leader, a mobster who ordered police murders and a beloved bootlegger turned bail bondsman. Say hello to Frank Hurn, a flashy, frenetic, fast-talking con man who was looking for suckers to invest in the Vulcans, an NFL team he promised to bring to Akron. From city saloon to suburban hideout, this is an alternative history lesson of the sometimes dicey coexistence of the well-heeled and the workers, men and women who lived big lives during Akron's fledgling days as a canal port, its pre-Depression heyday and zenith as a midwestern industrial success story.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kymberli Hagelberg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1540224023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781540224026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History Press Library Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/29\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 130\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.76lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.38d","brand":"Kymberli Hagelberg","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43991549444351,"sku":"9781540224026","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f9deadec-b1e7-4112-ab45-0ae1bc7c4239.jpg?v=1683310925","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/wicked-akron-kymberli-hagelberg-9781540224026","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
