{"product_id":"you-will-dye-at-midnight-victorian-threatening-letters-9781913934163","title":"You Will Dye at Midnight: Victorian Threatening Letters","description":"Victorian Ireland was global champion of threatening letters. This book reveals the murky world where tens of thousands of these letters and notices were nailed to barn doors or sent by penny post, intimidating, giving 'fair warning' and terrorizing the recipients. These victims were sometimes landlords, land agents, and land grabbers. Equally, they could be small farmers disputing land occupancy with neighbors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book examines the nature, extent, and context of this unusual trend. It investigates who sent threatening letters and why they sent them. It also delves into who received such unwelcome correspondence and what action they took, giving new insights particularly into 19th-century rural Ireland.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wordwell Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781913934163\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336","brand":"Donal McCracken","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41574723322037,"sku":"9781913934163","price":21.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_4ddf77c3-8e35-4ea7-a682-10153b5bf935.jpg?v=1643698352","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/you-will-dye-at-midnight-victorian-threatening-letters-9781913934163","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
