{"product_id":"oregons-capitol-buildings-9781467130257","title":"Oregon's Capitol Buildings","description":"The state of Oregon has had not one, not two, but three state capitol buildings. Two of them met a sudden and unexpected end destruction by fire. William Willson, a pioneer of Salem, donated some acres from his Donation Land Claim for a state capitol. The first, built in 1855, may have been torched in a desperate fight to move the capitol to Corvallis. A second capitol, built in 1873, was patterned after the US Capitol in Washington, DC. This capitol, adorned with a beautiful copper-clad dome, faced west toward the Willamette River. On April 25, 1935, a fire started in a basement storage area. It quickly spread to the whole structure, and within four hours, the entire thing lay in ruins. After an exhaustive design process, a new capitol was built in the midst of the Great Depression, topped with a golden pioneer.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcadia Publishing (SC)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/22\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781467130257\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 127\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.50w x 0.40d","brand":"Tom Fuller","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":38013775020213,"sku":"9781467130257","price":21.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_820ec6ea-f5a6-461f-aae6-576fd8fb214d.jpg?v=1609143289","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/oregons-capitol-buildings-9781467130257","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
