{"product_id":"9780199781829","title":"American Odysseys","description":"Written in an engaging and student-friendly style, American Odysseys examines the entire period between 1492 and 1763, covering important topics that shaped the colonial experience across time and in a variety of places. Authors Timothy J. Shannon and David N. Gellman use a thematic approach, focusing on colonial development and integration within a wider Atlantic world. Each chapter begins with the story of an individual who experienced the wonder and terror of colonization firsthand, so that students can feel a human connection to each of these topics and themes. Taken together, these figures--Indians, servants, slaves, explorers, planters--embody the full array of peoples and cultures that gave the colonial era a trans-Atlantic, multicultural character. Each chapter also features a chronology of events described in that chapter. Maps and images throughout the book help visually orient readers to the stories that comprise this concise yet broad-ranging narrative.","brand":"University Timothy J Shannon, David N Gellman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45744974659902,"sku":"9780199781829","price":3325.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4357\/7662\/products\/9780199781829_31407017-5ada-4d8f-9c5c-76f7e80718e1.jpg?v=1707224652","url":"https:\/\/exclusivebooks.co.za\/products\/9780199781829","provider":"Exclusive Books Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
