{"product_id":"2940014159937","title":"The Trumpet Major by Thomas Hardy","description":"The Trumpet-Major is a novel by Thomas Hardy published in 1880.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe heroine, Anne Garland, is pursued by three suitors: John Loveday, the trumpet major in a British regiment, honest and loyal; his brother Bob, a flighty sailor; and Festus Derriman, the cowardly nephew of the local squire.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe setting is the Napoleonic wars, and it seems Miss Garland has a penchant for men in uniform. Of the two brothers, John fights with Wellington in the Peninsular War, and Bob serves with Nelson at Trafalgar.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eUnusually for a Hardy novel, most of the characters live happily ever after; however, the ending is debatably an ominous one.","brand":"Granto Classic Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47083898044656,"sku":"2940014159937","price":3.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940014159937_p0.jpg?v=1763601858","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940014159937","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
