{"product_id":"9781780274294","title":"The Italian Chapel","description":"\u003cbr\u003eThousands of visitors go to the Italian Chapel in Orkney every year, witnesses to a series of remarkable acts of transformation. Among these are the Churchill Barriers nearby, straddling the ocean to link a number of Orkney’s southernmost islands to its mainland. Constructed to protect Britain’s naval fleet in Scapa Flow during World War Two, its builders included a group of Italian soldiers imprisoned in this bleak and windswept part of Scotland. In the course of this, they not only played a part in changing Orkney’s way-of-life forever but also transformed a simple Nissen Hut, constructing through their labours a place-of-worship that still stands till this day a remarkable symbol of their identity and faith.","brand":"Birlinn, Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47057312874736,"sku":"9781780274294","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781780274294_p0.jpg?v=1763712212","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781780274294","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
