Parrotheads, Hemingway aficionados, and sun worshipers view Key West as a tropical paradise, and scores of writers have set tales of mystery and romance on the island. The city's real story--told by Maureen Ogle in this lively and engaging illustrated account--is as fabulous as fiction. In the two centuries since the city's pioneer founders battled Indians, pirates, and deadly disease, Key West has stood at the crossroads of American history. In 1861, Union troops seized control of strategically located Key West. In the early 1890s, Key West Cubans helped Jos Mart launch the Cuban revolution, and a few years later the battleship Maine steamed out of Key West harbor on its last, tragic voyage. At the turn of the century, a technological marvel--the overseas railroad--was built to connect mainland Florida to Key West, and in the 1920s and 1930s, painters, rumrunners, and writers (including Ernest Hemingway and Robert Frost) discovered Key West. During World War II, the federal government and the military war machine permanently altered the island's landscape, and in the second half of the 20th century, bohemians, hippies, gays, and jet-setters began writing a new chapter in Key West's social history.Binding Type: Paperback

Love it! Will repurchase
Color: Rice Probiotics (Barrier Jelly)
I bought this to help with moisturizing my skin that is somewhat sensitized. I get hormonal breakouts but with daily use of a prescription tretinoin and antibiotic cream I am able to keep them at bay. I also use a sulpher soap on work nights to cleanse thoroughly. All this has sensitized my skin. I use a thick nighttime moisturizer (C***ve Skin Renewing Night Cream) but it was still not enough for the dryness my skin was experiencing. I use this mask over my moisturizer and it soothes irritation and moisturizes my skin really well. Before I tried this mask I was using petroleum jelly over my moisturizer but this mask works better. It’s very thick but easy to spread. I’ve used it on my eyes and I’ve had no irritation. I apply it a couple hours before I go to bed and it soaks into my skin. After using it for a few weeks I think my skin is softer also. I will repurchase.

Sooo good!
Color: Rice Probiotics (Barrier Jelly)
This is AMAZING! I used this over my serums and a retinol moisturizer before bed and woke up with the most moisturized and smooth skin I’ve had in forever. It’s a thick consistency but smooths on easily. It is a bit tacky for a little bit before it dries down but absolutely worth it. I learned about this on Beautiful and Bothered and Johnny is right!!

A little goes a long way
Color: Rice Probiotics (Barrier Jelly)
I love overnight masks, especially for dull winter skin, and this is a really nice one! The texture is extremely thick and jelly like and it has a lovely cooling effect. It didn’t clog my pores or irritate my skin, though I do find that it feels a bit heavy and stifling if applied very liberally. But, after a few tried I’ve finally found the right amount, a little goes a very long way. Because of that, this little pot should last me a long time, even with regular use so it’s a great value! I like to layer it over my barrier protecting/repair products or over retinols and I wake up with hydrated, bright, and fresh skin in the morning! Highly recommend.

So extremely hydrating
Color: Rice Probiotics (Barrier Jelly)
Best hydrating mask I have ever seen! Used it once so far at night. I would only use at night because it is sticky and stays sticky BUT so worth it! I had applied it 3 hours before going to sleep. During that 3 hours I could see it working. My skin kept getting plumper by the hours. I am 62 years old with deep wrinkles and very dry skin. Guess what...my skin was not dry all day after using this mask overnight. Can not wait to keep using it. My deep wrinkles are plumped up. I have bouncy skin.

Great, way better than "slugging"!
Color: Rice Probiotics (Barrier Jelly)
It's heavy, but less so than Vaseline. Vaseline causes me to breakout even though I'm constantly told it shouldn't. This feels sticky, but otherwise calming and seems to help my skin heal. I have pcos - large pores and produce extra oil, rosacea, and just very sensitive skin. You definitely have to let it sit before laying down but my skin is always less irritated in the morning.
