{"product_id":"2940158773211","title":"Up Near Dallas","description":"The year is 1934. Economic turbulence rocks the country. And record drought dries up crops, along with the spirits of every farmer south of the Mason-Dixon. Yet for sixteen-year-old Mick McLaren, life is good as he takes to the open road to chase his dream of being a musician. Riding boxcars, hitchhiking, walking and driving his way across Depression Era Texas, he finds not only himself, but the love of a girl from Dallas named Margaret. Along the way, they befriend Cowboy Larson, a Delta Blues guitarist. Together the three teens, from three very different worlds, come-of-age as their life-changing journey carries them through killer dust storms, extreme poverty, and the unprecedented gangster activity of the Dirty Thirties.","brand":"GHP Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47071802491120,"sku":"2940158773211","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940158773211_p0.jpg?v=1764123755","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940158773211","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
