Adapted from the bestselling grassroots history of the United States, the story of America in the world, told in comics form
Since its landmark publication in 1980, A People's History of the United States has had six new editions, sold more than 1.7 million copies, become required classroom reading throughout the country, and been turned into an acclaimed play. More than a successful book, A People's History triggered a revolution in the way history is told, displacing the official versions with their emphasis on great men in high places to chronicle events as they were lived, from the bottom up. Now Howard Zinn, historian Paul Buhle, and cartoonist Mike Konopacki have collaborated to retell, in vibrant comics form, a most immediate and relevant chapter of A People's History: the centuries-long story of America's actions in the world. Narrated by Zinn, this version opens with the events of 9/11 and then jumps back to explore the cycles of U.S. expansionism from Wounded Knee to Iraq, stopping along the way at World War I, Central America, Vietnam, and the Iranian revolution. The book also follows the story of Zinn, the son of poor Jewish immigrants, from his childhood in the Brooklyn slums to his role as one of America's leading historians. Shifting from world-shattering events to one family's small revolutions, A People's History of American Empire presents the classic ground-level history of America in a dazzling new form.Binding Type: Paperback

Love this subtle shimmer rose bronze very moisturizing &thicker
Beautiful color shimmer & sleek shine. Can be subtle or apply more to get a oil look. Smells a little bit like coconut which I don't love if Im wearing perfume. Its a beautiful bronzey pink subtle shimmer. Not glitter & reapply to be a oiled goddess. Works perfectly on my light-med skin tone. Definitely a great summer find. And it is moisturizing & a pretty sheen.

Love the smell and great for my skin
This has become a permanent part of my shower routine. I use it right after I turn the water off while I am still wet, I cover my entire body from the neck down using about 8-10 pumps. I will wrap my body in a towel and finish getting ready (brush teeth, face moisturizer and blow drying hair) and then I will gently rub the towel everywhere incase there is any excess oil after it had the time to absorb into my skin. I dont think it leaves any greasiness at all, its really lightweight. What I love most of all is the smell though. A very nice, light, sweet vanilla smell lingers on your skin until your next shower. You have to put your nose pretty close to your skin to smell it so you wont be bothering anyone who had scent sensitivities. I have been using this for almost a year now and I still keep bringing my forearm to my nose to smell my skin because I love it so much. My skin has improved so much since I started using this.

A GREAT OIL FOR YOUR SKIN
I JUST REVIEWED THE LOTION WHICH I LOVED AND I ALSO LOVE THIS OIL. I THOUGHT THIS WAS A LITTLE BIT PRICEY BECAUSE THE BOTTLE IS A BIT SMALL HOWEVER YOU REALLY ONLY NEED A SMALL AMOUNT AS A LITTLE GOES A LONG WAY. IT ABSORBS INTO YOUR SKIN NICELY WITHOUT FEEL OVERLY GREASY AND IT LEAVES YOUR SKIN SOFT AND SMELLING VERY NICE. THE SMELL IS LOVELY BUT IT ISN'T A REAL STRONG SMELL AND THE VANILLA ISN'T OVERLY SWEET EITHER. IT IS THE PERFECT VANILLA. IT LEAVES YOUR SKIN REFRESHED AND I LOVE IT !! IT GOES GREAT WITH THE LOTION.

Worth it
Okay first night using and I’m in love. Smells amazing. I’m particular about my vanillas but this is light but strong. Doesn’t disappear right away sits on the skin nice and drifts on the air as a nice aroma. Dries down wonderfully too. I did have to use a few pumps to cover each part of my body but so worth it. It’s not greasy at all and gives a nice glow. Application was easy and I do feel moisturized. Looking for the lotion version now to layer over top it.

Very good product. TRY IT!
I LOVE this body oil. I’d been using Elemis Muscleease, which I still prefer, but I was paying $40-$45 dollars a bottle from EBay. Sadly, the makers of Elemis changed the formula & I was having to use more of it to get the same results. Plus, the WONDERFUL scent, that I always found so relaxing but not overpowering, was different. When I saw a review for this cocoa butter body oil, I decided to try it. I’m so glad I did. It works well for my extremely dry skin, has a very nice scent, soaks in quickly, & costs less than half from what I was paying for Elemis. Plus, it contains 6.5 ounces instead of 3.3 of Elemis, though I do use a bit more of it. I’m very glad I found it. In truth, I still would prefer the Elemis, the old formula, but this works quite well & saves me money. As a retired woman living on much less income, the price is a big consideration for me. And, the formula change by Elemis, made it less effective. I would absolutely recommend trying this product if you have issues with dry skin. I recommend using it as soon as you get out of the shower to trap the water on your skin for best results.
