{"product_id":"9781529386073","title":"The race to the future","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe world of 1907 is poised between the old and the new: communist regimes will replace imperial ones in China and Russia; the telegraph is transforming modern communication and the car will soon displace the horse. Kassia St Clair traces the fascinating stories of two interlocking races - setting the derring-do (and sometimes cheating) of one of the world's first car races against the backdrop of a larger geopolitical and technological rush to the future, as the rivalry grows between countries and empires, building up to the cataclysmic event that changed everything - the First World War. 'The Race to the Future' is the incredible true story of the quest against the odds that shaped the world we live in today.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"St. Clair,Kassia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55328599671162,"sku":"9781529386073","price":10.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0423\/0240\/6809\/files\/9781529386073.jpg?v=1746016932","url":"https:\/\/winstonebooks.pro\/products\/9781529386073","provider":"Winstone's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
