The Life of Hon. William F. Cody, Known as Buffalo BillWhat we know of Buffalo Bill Cody (1846 1917) is more myth than man.

What we know of Buffalo Bill Cody (1846-1917) is more myth than man. Yet the stage persona that took audiences by storm was based on the very real encounters of William F. Cody with the American West. This autobiography, infused with the drama of dime novels and stage melodramas that would transform the author into an American icon, recounts a boy's move to the Kansas territory, where his father hoped to homestead, and his subsequent life on the frontier, following his career from trapper to buffalo hunter to Army scout, guide, and Indian fighter.
Written when Cody was thirty-three years old, this life story captures both the hard reality of frontier life and the sensational image to which a boy of the time might aspire: the Indian fights, buffalo hunting, and Pony Express escapades that popular history contributed to the myth-making of Buffalo Bill. It is this movement between the personal and the mythic, plain facts and tall tales, William F. Cody and Buffalo Bill, that gives this autobiography its fascination and its power.
Based on the original 1879 edition, this volume provides a new introduction, historical materials, and twenty-six additional images. It reveals both the William F. Cody of personal history and the Buffalo Bill of American mythology--and, finally, the curious reality that partakes of both.

Good, sturdy and easy cleanup for family events and holidays!
Size: 18oz brown
These disposable bowls seem well designed, with a focus on people who want compostable and microwave-safe options for hot foods. I like how thick and sturdy they are. They’re easy to use and stack neatly for storage. Great for parties, camping, or fast cleanup days. A good value for the price. They thankfully have good compostability.

Nice recycled bowls!
Size: 18oz brown
This is a nice packs of disposable bowls. They hold up well when you microwave something in them (It was a can of drained corn and butter). I like that they're compostable , and they do a good job at resisting moisture. I didn't leave a bowl full of water overnight, but for having a meal, they're perfect to contain your food.

Excellent mineral sunscreen for sensitive skin.
Set name: Tube - 3 oz.
I’ve been using the Blue Lizard Sensitive Mineral Sunscreen, and it’s become a staple in my routine. As someone with sensitive skin, I really appreciate that it’s fragrance-free and uses zinc oxide, providing great protection without causing any irritation or breakouts. It goes on smoothly, isn't overly greasy, and the water resistance holds up well for outdoor activities. The smart cap technology is a nice touch, too. Highly recommended if you’re looking for effective, non-irritating sun protection.
