Fortune's Fool: The Life of John Wilkes BoothWith a single shot from a pistol small enough to conceal in his hand, John Wilkes Booth catapulted into history on the night of April 14, 1865.

With a single shot from a pistol small enough to conceal in his hand, John Wilkes Booth catapulted into history on the night of April 14, 1865. The assassination of President Abraham Lincoln stunned a nation that was just emerging from the chaos and calamity of the Civil War, and the president's untimely death altered the trajectory of postwar history. But to those who knew Booth, the event was even more shocking--for no one could have imagined that this fantastically gifted actor and well-liked man could commit such an atrocity. In Fortune's Fool, Terry Alford provides the first comprehensive look at the life of an enigmatic figure whose life has been overshadowed by his final, infamous act. Tracing Booth's story from his uncertain childhood in Maryland, characterized by a difficult relationship with his famous actor father, to his successful acting career on stages across the country, Alford offers a nuanced picture of Booth as a public figure, performer, and deeply troubled man. Despite the fame and success that attended Booth's career--he was billed at one point as "the youngest star in the world"--he found himself consumed by the Confederate cause and the desire to help the South win its independence. Alford reveals the tormented path that led Booth to conclude, as the Confederacy collapsed in April 1865, that the only way to revive the South and punish the North for the war would be to murder Lincoln--whatever the cost to himself or others. The textured and compelling narrative gives new depth to the familiar events at Ford's Theatre and the aftermath that followed, culminating in Booth's capture and death at the hands of Union soldiers 150 years ago. Based on original research into government archives, historical libraries, and family records, Fortune's Fool offers the definitive portrait of John Wilkes Booth.Binding Type: Paperback

Save Sanity (and Sinks)
Style: 20 Ounces, Size: 56 Count
These 20-ounce bowls have been a lifesaver for a big family with no time—or sanity—to spare for a sink full of dishes.
Don’t fill one with water and leave it overnight unless you’re running a paper-mâché experiment. For hot soup, I’d recommend using two bowls, but for cereal, pasta, snacks, or fruit, they’re perfect.
I even found one that had been left outside in the rain for a few days and it still hadn’t disintegrated—so sturdiness gets bonus points.
Also, three scoops of ice cream plus toppings? Tested and verified.
If you value your peace of mind more than your dish pile, these are the bowls you’re looking for.

These are great
Style: 20 Ounces, Size: 56 Count
These hold my hot and cold foods with no problem. I have not had an issue with leaking and it’s been safe to use in the microwave. I’ve even had liquidy foods in it. Like juices from the food. I have also eaten soups with no issues. Great price and durable.

Great for dry skin
Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
I use this lotion to help with my dry skin and it is the only one that really helps. I live that it doesn't smell funky. it's lightweight on my skin and not too thick . it is strong enough to relieve my skin and gives my skin a nice glow . With 3 in the package it provides quality in quantity at a good price. The bottles come wrapped tight so there wasn't any leakage in the bottles. The bottles are big enough to provide enough to last

Quality. Price
Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
I have bought this lotion alot I the past. But this is the best price I have got. It is the main reason for my purchase other than I liked the lotion. If you have never tried this lotion then dont hesitate, its pretty good stuff. I recently I have became more conscious of the ingrediants on lotions so I switched. But I wouldn't hesitate to use this. Save some money and time and buy it here if you are already a regular user. And if you looking to try it out I wouldn't hesitate unless you are ingrediants conscious. It definitely moisturizes the skin untill your next shower. Feels good. Not greasy. Apply for any sort of dry skin. And it smells good if that's one of your requirements.
