{"product_id":"long-way-round-through-the-heartland-by-river-9780299324803","title":"Long Way Round: Through the Heartland by River","description":"Inspired by tales of a mythic Round River, a circular stream where \"what goes around comes around,\" John Hildebrand sets off to rediscover his home state. \u003cbr\u003e Wisconsin is in the midst of an identity crisis, torn by new political divisions and the old gulf between city and countryside. Cobbling rivers together, from the burly Mississippi to the slender wilds of Tyler Forks, Hildebrand navigates the beautiful but complicated territory of home. In once prosperous small towns, he discovers unsung heroes--lockmasters, river rats, hotelkeepers, mechanics, environmentalists, tribal leaders, and perennial mayors--struggling to keep their communities afloat. \u003cbr\u003e While history doesn't flow in a circle, it doesn't always move in a straight line either. Hildebrand charts the improbable ox-bows along its course. \u003ci\u003e Long Way Round \u003c\/i\u003e shows us the open road as a river with possibility around the next bend.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Wisconsin Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/08\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780299324803\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.97lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.60h x 5.60w x 0.80d","brand":"John Hildebrand","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":38022282084533,"sku":"9780299324803","price":22.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_9ef74f39-1d60-4df3-85b2-2ddeba34a035.jpg?v=1609181067","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/long-way-round-through-the-heartland-by-river-9780299324803","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
