NATIONAL BOOK AWARD WINNER - "Altogether gripping, shocking, and brilliantly told, not just a tour de force in its stylistic range, but a great American novel, as powerful a reading experience as nearly any in our literature."--Michael Dirda, The New York Review of Books Killing Mister Watson, Lost Man's River, and Bone by Bone--Peter Matthiessen's great American epic about Everglades sugar planter and notorious outlaw E. J. Watson on the wild Florida frontier at the turn of the twentieth century--were originally conceived as one vast, mysterious novel. Now, in this bold new rendering, Matthiessen has marvelously distilled a monumental work while deepening the insights and motivations of his characters with brilliant rewriting throughout.Praise for Shadow Country
"Magnificent . . . breathtaking . . . Finally now we have this three-part saga] welded like a bell, and with Watson's song the last sound, all the elements fuse and resonate."--Los Angeles Times
"Peter Matthiessen has done great things with the Watson trilogy. It's the story of our continent, both land and people, and his writing does every justice to the blood fury of his themes."--Don DeLillo
"The fiction of Peter Ma--tthiessen is the reason a lot of people in my generation decided to be writers. No doubt about it. Shadow Country lives up to anyone's highest expectations for great writing." --Richard Ford "Shadow Country, Matthiessen's distillation of the earlier Watson saga, represents his original vision. It is the quintessence of his lifelong concerns, and a great legacy."--W. S. Merwin
" An] epic masterpiece . . . a great American novel."--The Miami Herald

Great convenient nontoxic spray sunblock option that really works!
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I am very serious about nontoxic products for my family, particularly for my young children. I also insist on sunscreen almost every day. The unfortunate thing is that I really dislike actually applying sunscreen! lol! I don't mind on normal mornings (and we usually use the Green Screen Organic Sunscreen SPF 32 Original - Vegan - Gluten-free or Babo Botanicals SPF 40 Daily Sheer Facial Sunscreen, Unscented), but when we are on the go or at the beach, I wanted to make it as easy as possible to apply. We bought this for a beach getaway over the summer and it really surprised me. It is an easy application (shake, spray, rub) and it really worked. Two children and two adults used this on the entire body and face along with some extra stick protection on the face. I reapplied a few times, but not religiously and no one got a burn... no one really even got a tan. It says that it is sweat and water proof up until a certain point and I believe it really is because we were in scorching heat on the beach (in the water too) and no one had any issues. The great thing is that it really did make application easy so I think we reapplied more appropriately than we would have with a regular tube of sublock. I am not experienced with spray sunblocks so I cannot compare with others, but I believe it is similar. Note, since this is a nontoxic sublock that is zinc based, it does go on white and also sprays whatever it gets on white, but I didn't have any problems. It rubs in very easily and seemed to come off of carpet, clothes, etc. very easily as well. This is now a regular go-to for us even on non-beach days.

Ok, but not great for the price.
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The good: 1. Doesn't have that typical sunscreen sent. (I hate that smell so that is a major plus for me.).
2. Doesn't burn my eyes
3. Doesn't clog my porse (some sunscreen gives me back acne)
The bad: 1. On my skin (And I suspect anyone who has melanin ) it leaves a chalk-like film that makes me look ashy.
2. When you spray it IT GETS EVERYWHERE! On the floor, walls and pretty much tow feet from wherever you are standing.
3. I bought this at the 1st of the month it's 18th and the bottle is EMPTY! And I didn't even use it every day (obviously only used when I was outside in the sun.)
4. Feels chalkie on the skin.
Overall while not a bad product, I will not be purchasing again too many issues and cons for the price.

My favorite sunscreen
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The BEST sunscreen I have tried. I LOVE this unscented Coola. It goes on smooth and doesn’t feel sticky at all, you will forget you have it on. It truly is unscented and so light. It’s also effective protection from the sun.

One of the few body sunscreens that doesn't trigger my sensory issues
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have sensory sensitivities, so wearing sunscreen is usually a pretty unpleasant experience for me. I can't stand heavy textures, greasy finishes, or that sticky sunscreen feeling that seems to sit on top of the skin all day. I'm also bothered by mineral and matte sunscreens that dry my skin out. It's very hard to find a sunscreen as genuinely comfortable as this one is.
I bought the Coola Sunblock Body Lotion because several reviews mentioned that it actually feels like a regular lotion once applied, but I honestly assumed it still wouldn't work for me.
I was genuinely shocked the first time I used this. The texture feels silky and lightweight, absorbs quickly, and leaves my skin feeling soft rather than coated or oily. It really does wear more like a comfortable body lotion than a traditional sunscreen, and I don't notice any residue or oily feel at all, which is amazing.
I also love that it's fragrance-free, which makes it even easier for me to tolerate, especially with sensitive skin and sensory issues.
Coola Sunblock Body Lotion is one of the very few body sunscreens I've tried that I actually enjoy wearing, and it works perfectly. I am very fair and burn easily, but I had no burning or redness on my first outside day of the summer while wearing this.
It's sunscreen that works and that I can actually wear with zero discomfort. Amazing.
