{"product_id":"9781552443330","title":"The Gunner","description":"Eric Alford's safe and romantic life on the peaceful Gaspe Coast is shattered by his decision to follow his elder brother John (the Pilgrim and The Chaplain) into the 1914-18 cataclysm of death and destruction known as the \"Great War for Civilisation\". By his thundering Howitzer, Gunner Alford assaults the Hun through every major Canadian battle of WWI: Ypres, Vimy Ridge, Passchendaele, Hill 70, The Somme, and \"The Hundred Days\" that ended the conflict. A developing romance with a lovely Londoner is cut short by a German shell. Evacuated to a Rouen field hospital, he is surrounded by hellish wounds: blindness, amputations, and gas-inflicted horrors. Finally, back in Blighty among other shell-shock victims, he recovers and returns to his Gaspe home, bereft of his London love and changed forever.","brand":"Red Deer Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47132554363120,"sku":"9781552443330","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781552443330_p0.jpg?v=1763753799","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781552443330","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
