Harriet Ryegate, the proper daughter of Massachusetts Puritans, is the first white woman to go far into the wilderness beyond the upper Missouri. With her husband, a Baptist minister, she seeks to convert the Blackfoot Indians to Christianity. But it is the Ryegates who are changed by their journey into strangeness. Marcus Ryegate returns to Massachusetts obsessed by a beautiful Indian woman. For sermonizing about her, he pays a heavy price. Harriet, one of Mildred Walker's most fully realized characters, writes in her journal about the effect of the Wilderness on civilized persons who are accustomed to live in the world of words. If a Lion Could Talk reveals the tragic lack of communication that stretches from Massachusetts to Missouri and beyond in the years before the Civil War--and the appalling heart of darkness that is close to home.

Soft, Good Smelling, Cleans Great!
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Facial Cleanser
This is easily my favorite facial cleanser I have used TO DATE. The first thing I always notice with hygiene products is the scent, and you can trust me when I say it's the best smelling scent you'll recieve on any Male product. Scent - The best way to describe it would be Pine, vanilla, with a refreshing kick. It is SO nice! Cleansing - This is, surprisingly, one of the best facial cleansing products I've ever used. It goes on gently, and does not have that "burning" sensation that some products leave on your face. It washes off softly and leaves my face feeling VERY smooth. The only small problem I've run into is a little bit of dryness left on my cheeks, but my skin is VERY sensitive so it's understandable. A very small amount of moisturizer fixes that easily! Conclusion - It cleans my face very gently, and leaves it feeling clean, smooth, and hydrated! The scent is fantastic, unique, but not too strong. I recommend this to ANYONE! And would be an amazing gift!!!

Fantastic facial cleanser
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Facial Cleanser
This stuff is really good. I've been using it for a year now. I usually hate facial cleansers like Cetaphil because they dry your face out and smell like farmers soap. This one has a light musky smell and really makes you feel refreshed. I will keep buying this stuff as long as they keep making it.

Just buy some!
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Facial Cleanser
Have been looking for a new product to replace my previous expensive cleanser, and couldn't be happier with this. A little bit does the job and feels great. Along with the matching moisturizer it's a win win combination! 70 year old male.

Awesome
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Facial Cleanser
Might go to facial cleaner for every day use. All the products from marlowe are awesome no exception. The scent kind of has a slight pine to it. I have bought several times now
