{"product_id":"dream-kingdom","title":"Dream Kingdom","description":"\u003cp\u003eEdwardian England is a country at the peak of its power; a kingdom of peace, prosperity and progress. As Jessie and Violet enjoy their coming-out  in the glittering Season of 1908, their thoughts are of pleasure, dancing and falling in love.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor the Morlands things seem set fair: new business ventures expand their influence and wealth; there are weddings, babies in the nursery, careers for the boys now reaching manhood. It is an exciting age, with new technologies - motor cars, telephones, radio, aeroplanes - extending man''s control over the natural world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut under the  appearance of permanence, a different reality is stirring. Socialism, the suffrage movement, the constitutional crisis, all call forth ever more dissent and anger. Increasingly violent protests and strikes disturb the peace; war with Germany looms ever closer.   With the King''s death, it begins to seem that the safe Edwardian world was only a dream, from which the wakening will be hard indeed.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57318755598718,"sku":"NW9780751533439","price":10.77,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9780751533439.jpg?v=1778698520","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/products\/dream-kingdom","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
