{"product_id":"9781628730135","title":"The Steel Bonnets: The Story of the Anglo-Scottish Border Reivers","description":"From the thirteenth to the sixteenth centuries, outlaws reigned supreme on the contentious frontier between England and Scotland. Feud and terror, raid and reprisal, were the ordinary stuff of life—and a way of survival. Power was held by the notorious border reivers (the \"steel bonnets,\" named for their flashy helmets), who robbed and murdered in the name of family: the famous clans (or \"grains\")—like Elliot, Armstrong, Charlton, and Robson—romanticized by Sir Walter Scott. In \u003ci\u003eThe Steel Bonnets\u003c\/i\u003e, George MacDonald Fraser, author of the bestselling \u003ci\u003eFlashman\u003c\/i\u003e novels, and himself a borderer, tells the fascinating and bloody story of the reivers, their rise to power as ferocious soldiers of horse, and their surprisingly sudden fall from grace.","brand":"Skyhorse Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47164263104752,"sku":"9781628730135","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781628730135_p0.jpg?v=1763870262","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781628730135","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
