{"product_id":"american-revolution-9780853450153","title":"American Revolution","description":"\u003cp\u003eJames Boggs, born in Marion Junction, Alabama in  1919, never dreamed of becoming President or a locomotive engineer. He  grew up in a world where the white folks are gentlemen by day and Ku  Klux Klanners at night. Marion Junction is in Dallas County where as  late as 1963, although African-Americans  made up over 57 percent of the  total county population of 57,000, only 130 were registered voters.    After graduating from Dunbar High School in Bessemer, Alabama, in 1937,  Boggs took the first freight train north, bumming his way through the  western part of the country, working in the hop fields of the state of  Washington, cutting ice in Minnesota, and finally ending up in Detroit  where he worked on WPA until the Second World War gave him a chance to  enter the Chrysler auto plant.   Both a keen analysis of U.S. society  and a passionate call for revolutionary struggle, The American  Revolution has been translated into French, Italian, Japanese, Spanish,  Catalan, and Portuguese.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"James Boggs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48274188763387,"sku":"9780853450153","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/CoreSourceHub_1759232e-7fa3-4507-a953-79838391e43d.jpg?v=1771033375","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/american-revolution-9780853450153","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
