{"product_id":"9780520274518","title":"Someplace Like America : Tales from the New Great Depression","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn Someplace Like America, writer Dale Maharidge and photographer Michael S. Williamson take us to the working-class heart of America, bringing to life--through shoe leather reporting, memoir, vivid stories, stunning photographs, and thoughtful analysis--the deepening crises of poverty and homelessness. The story begins in 1980, when the authors joined forces to cover the America being ignored by the mainstream media--people living on the margins and losing their jobs as a result of deindustrialization. Since then, Maharidge and Williamson have traveled more than half a million miles to investigate the state of the working class (winning a Pulitzer Prize in the process). In Someplace Like America, they follow the lives of several families over the thirty-year span to present an intimate and devastating portrait of workers going jobless. This brilliant and essential study--begun in the trickle-down Reagan years and culminating with the recent banking catastrophe--puts a human face on today's grim economic numbers. It also illuminates the courage and resolve with which the next generation faces the future.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of California Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46803874250831,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":873.0,"currency_code":"TWD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0672\/9174\/2287\/files\/9780520274518-1.jpg?v=1789810653","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.tw\/products\/9780520274518","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Taiwan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
