Sketches of Intriguing People: and the Curious Events They Suffered While Living in the Wilderness of the Northwest Territory.In 1787 the Northwest Territory was opened for settlement. It was as exciting a time as one could imagine, and volatile as well. With great anticipation, as well as extraordinary courage and resolve, citizens of the new United States ventured from the civilized communities established along the Atlantic, into the expansive wilderness lying beyond the Appalachians.

In 1787 the Northwest Territory was opened for settlement. It was as exciting a time as one could imagine, and volatile as well. With great anticipation, as well as extraordinary courage and resolve, citizens of the new United States ventured from the civilized communities established along the Atlantic, into the expansive wilderness lying beyond the Appalachians. These individuals were in possession of an indomitable spirit that had gotten them through a revolution and now guided them into the unknown; an inherent American spirit that is still recognizable today. Likewise, the Native Americans who already inhabited the land, were instinctively driven to defend it and in the process faced internal struggles of their own.

This book blows the dust off of their stories; most long forgotten and some rarely ever told. Through sketches, created with words rather than charcoal, intriguing episodes of their lives are retold, often in their own words. As you read excerpts from diaries, letters, and newspapers of the day, you'll be given a rare and raw glimpse into some of the most daring lives lived on the frontier. Be careful, for their emotions may momentarily become yours.

Some of the tales are thrilling, others curious, and a few are even light-hearted, but all are true. So come on The United States of America has just been born Hazard a trip over the mountains and stake your claim to adventure alongside some rugged, historic, and often heroic Americans, new and native.

Great Sunscreen
Love this sunscreen. What I like most is that it goes on very dry with zero greasy feeling or shine. The sunscreen is also scent free. I’ve seen several review where purchases stated that they received expired product. Mine arrived in January 2023 and expires February, 2024. I highly recommend this product.

Doesn’t stain clothes and lightweight
Something that always bothers me about sunscreen is how it stains clothing. I did not have that problem with this sunscreen. It was lightweight. It only had a very mild gritty feeling after having it on for over 8 hours and sweating a ton. Best sunscreen out there right now!

The only sunscreen that does not break me out!
I have oily to normal skin with general sensitivity. The breakout-free Neutrogena sunscreens are the only ones that don't break out my face and body, even with reapplication. I have repurchased several times and highly recommend. There is only a slight white cast left over but here's my hack for no whitecast: apply a small amount to fingers and rub to warm, pat to cover face, then rub to blend in, then repeat with another layer. Perfect for underneath makeup, I usually put it on before primer.
