{"product_id":"2940011899355","title":"An Antarctic Mystery","description":"Geographical nomenclature, however, insists on the name of Kerguelen, which is generally adopted for the group which lies in 49° 45′ south latitude, and 69° 6′ east longitude. This is just, because in 1772, Baron Kerguelen, a Frenchman, was the first to discover those islands in the southern part of the Indian Ocean. Indeed, the commander of the squadron on that voyage believed that he had found a new continent on the limit of the Antarctic seas, but in the course of a second expedition he recognized his error. There was only an archipelago. I may be believed when I assert that Desolation Islands is the only suitable name for this group of three hundred isles or islets in the midst of the vast expanse of ocean, which is constantly disturbed by austral storms.","brand":"New Century Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47145264480496,"sku":"2940011899355","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940011899355_p0.jpg?v=1763551142","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940011899355","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
