{"product_id":"9781596526600","title":"Remembering the University of Michigan","description":"Founded in Detroit, Michigan, in 1817 as one of the first public universities in the nation, the University of Michigan moved to Ann Arbor in 1837. What started as a 40-acre campus with four buildings expanded over the next 170 years to become one of the most distinguished universities in the world. With a selection of fine historic images from their best-selling book \u003ci\u003eHistoric Photos of University of Michigan\u003c\/i\u003e, Michael Chmura and Christina M. Consolino provide a valuable and revealing historical retrospective on the growth and development of the university. \u003ci\u003eRemembering the University of Michigan\u003c\/i\u003e depicts the unfolding history of the college, from its early stages in the 1870s to its more modern self of the late 1970s. Exceptional black-and-white images of the campus and surrounding area, selected from the Bentley Historical Library's extensive collection, provide a taste of campus life while taking readers through the evolution of buildings, the beginning of an athletic legend, and the historic events that united the campus with a community. These photographs-many rarely seen-portray the richness that forms the proud history of the University of Michigan.","brand":"Turner Publishing Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47036809314544,"sku":"9781596526600","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781596526600_p0.jpg?v=1763811293","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781596526600","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
