How Nancy Jackson Married Kate Wilson and Other Tales of Rebellious Girls and Daring Young WomenBoyhood is the most familiar province of Mark Twain's fiction, but a reader doesn't have to look far to find feminine territory and it's not the perfectly neat and respectable place where you'd expect to see Becky Thatcher.

Boyhood is the most familiar province of Mark Twain's fiction, but a reader doesn't have to look far to find feminine territory--and it's not the perfectly neat and respectable place where you'd expect to see Becky Thatcher. This is a fictional world where rather than polishing their domestic arts and waiting for marriage proposals, girls are fighting battles, riding stallions, rescuing boys from rivers, cross-dressing, debating religion, hunting, squaring off against angry bulls, or, in what may be the most flagrant flouting of Victorian convention, marrying other women. This special edition brings together the best of Twain's stories about unconventional girls and women, from Eve as she names the animals in Eden to Joan of Arc to the transvestite farce of a young man named Alice from the Wapping district of London. Whatever they're doing--bopping boys with a baseball bat in Hellfire Hotchkiss, treating the author to a life story and a dogsled ride in The Esquimau Maiden's Romance, or sacrificing all for the sake of a horse, as in A Horse's Tale--these women and girls are surprising, provocative, and irresistibly entertaining in the great Twain tradition in which they now finally take their rightful place.Binding Type: Paperback

This sheepskin rug is amazing! One of my favorite purchases!
Color: Cream Brown, Size: Round 48''
I loved the first one so much I came back and bought a larger one. The texture and the thickness are pure luxury. Well worth the money and there is no smell.

Very thick
Color: Ivory White, Size: Round 48'', Color: Ivory White, Size: Round 48''
I was pleasantly surprised that it was as thick and fluffy as it was for the price. I have another that I got that says it’s high pile and isn’t as nice as this one that says medium pile. Excellent for the price!

Not as pictured
Color: Ivory White, Size: Round 48''
The rug isn’t as pretty in person… choppy looking and noticeable. Different fur lengths and not cozy soft. I have other lamb skin rugs but this one doesn’t measure up. Sent it back…

Great valur
Size: 2' x 3' (Natural), Color: Gray Tipped
Soft and comfortable. Quality leather nsckrd. Genuine sheepskin. No off odors. I'm skinny and not on tailbone. Hoping this helps. The grey tipped is more of a bluish gray. Pretty but not s true gray.

On the fence? This is the sheepskin to get!
Size: 2' x 3' (Natural), Color: Wolf Tipped
I've been reading all the reviews for sheepskins on AMZ and felt this company was the one to go for and WOW did they deliver! The sheepskin came well wrapped but not vacuum packed and is even prettier in person than the pictures. It is super soft, fluffy and dense and mine measured 26" x 40". I absolutely love the wolf tipped colors: ivory, dark grey and a slight brownish hue. There is a slight odor but I don't find it offensive. It stayed put on my leather couch and sitting on it during a Netflix movie was heavenly warm and comfortable. I did not observe any shedding. Will definitely buy another wolf tipped one, once it becomes available as it is worth the money.
