"A rare combination of scholarship and wit. Delightful for anyone seeking insight on the Dutch in modern America." - George Marsden In this scholarly yet entertaining book, James D. Bratt takes a look at the Dutch in America from the late 19th century to the present. A comprehensive study of an ethnic subculture, the book is in large part a study of the group's religious history as well, since, as Bratt points out, the contours of the Dutch presence in America have been overwhelmingly shaped by the church and its subsidiary organizations. Although the book is extensively and scrupulously documented, Bratt has infused his scholarship with a considerable amount of anecdote that is by turns poignant and tragic and hilarious. In Bratt's analysis of the fitful progress of Americanization that this close-knit religious community has undergone, we are treated to the sharp insights of a bemused and sometimes disaffected insider. Included is a chapter on novelists Arnold Mulder, David Cornel DeJong, Frederick Manfred, and Peter DeVries - four sons of the Dutch who fled the subculture only to reflect upon it almost obsessively from the outside. Well written, scholarly, and highly readable Dutch Calvinism in Modern America will have wide appeal among both academic and general readers. James D. Bratt is Professor of history at Calvin College in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

Works quickly to calm itch
Size: 6.76 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I had an itchy outbreak on the back of my hand the day this product arrived. Perfect timing. Applied Avene and within a short time the itch calmed almost 100%. Slept through the night and this morning, the red rash is about 95% healed. So glad I bought this. Just another old age issue to deal with.

Loved this cleanser
I really love this cleanser. I use it every night to take off my sunscreen and my skin looks great. I enjoy that it doesn’t dry out the skin and it’s great for mascara. It’s very gentle as well and doesn’t sting your eyes. Will be buying again once I’m done.

Product review from a teenage girl
Has helped my fungal acne very well and has calmed down my breakouts I get monthly. There’s no scent and it feels very soft in the skin. Easy to rinse off and easy to use. Helps out my dry skin and makes me feel smooth after using.

Gentle and non-greasy cleanser.
Gentle on mature skin. No fragrance. Non-greasy. This is my double cleanser to remove makeup and this first step gets my face make up free and feels very clean.

Game changer
I use this cleanser with the other cleanser they have, the green one. It’s actually crazy how much it changed my skin routine. I didn’t change my products and only my cleansers and there was a huge improvement. Using them both together feels very nice, there is literally a slight glow on my face after i’m done washing it. The cleanser itself is an oil and helps get my makeup off well. My face is usually oily but my t-zone can be a bit dry, these combined helped my face go back to a “normal” balance. So happy with my purchase, definitely recommend.
