When the gun smoke cleared, four men were found dead at the hardware store in a rural East Texas town. But this December 1934 shootout was no anomaly. San Augustine County had seen at least three others in the previous three years, and these murders in broad daylight were only the latest development in the decade-long rule of the criminal McClanahan-Burleson gang. Armed with handguns, Jim Crow regulations, and corrupt special Ranger commissions from infamous governors "Ma" and "Pa" Ferguson, the gang racketeered and bootlegged its way into power in San Augustine County, where it took up robbing and extorting local black sharecroppers as its main activity. After the hardware store shootings, white community leaders, formerly silenced by fear of the gang's retribution, finally sought state intervention. In 1935, fresh-faced, newly elected governor James V. Allred made good on his promise to reform state law enforcement agencies by sending a team of qualified Texas Rangers to San Augustine County to investigate reports of organized crime. In East Texas Troubles, historian Jody Edward Ginn tells of their year-and-a-half-long cleanup of the county, the inaugural effort in Governor Allred's transformation of the Texas Rangers into a professional law enforcement agency. Besides foreshadowing the wholesale reform of state law enforcement, the Allred Rangers' investigative work in San Augustine marked a rare close collaboration between white law enforcement officers and black residents. Drawing on firsthand accounts and the sworn testimony of black and white residents in the resulting trials, Ginn examines the consequences of such cooperation in a region historically entrenched in racial segregation. In this story of a rural Texas community's resurrection, Ginn reveals a multifaceted history of the reform of the Texas Rangers and of an unexpected alliance between the legendary frontier lawmen and black residents of the Jim Crow South.Binding Type: Paperback

So far, loving this! I have super sensitive skin and it's causing no issues!
This serum is really nice and easy to apply! It’s on the thin side, so I like to tilt my head upwards and gently release a drop or 2 at a time onto my face. Rub it in from there.
If you drop this into your hand to apply first, you’ll be wasting a lot of product, so don’t go that route.
I do have some sun spots I’m looking to tackle, so hopefully this will help with those!
I also live in a city with high levels of pollution, so I can use all the antioxidants I can get!
I'm excited to see if this helps with some sun damage and spots that I've accumulated over the years.

Absorbs quickly
I like this ampoule. It has a nice gel-like viscosity and absorbs quickly into my skin and has not caused any irritation. I like that it has no smell. Since I have been using it, I have noticed a general lightening of the dark spots on my cheeks. I have noticed that my skin tone looks brighter since I have started using this. I will continue to use this ampoule in hopes of seeing even more improvement. Overall, I am very happy with this ampoule and think it does a good job of evening out my skin tone and lightening dark spots I have on my face making my skin look brighter, in general.

Does nothing for my skin
I have been using this for a little over a month and this has done nothing for my skin. For the price, I'm disappointed, I expected to see at least some little results after 1 month but nothing for me. I will not purchase again.

Its fine... but didnt really work for me.
No negative side effects, but I just didn't find it to lighten the areas I was hoping for.
** Hi a little about me and my reviews.
I regularly review skin care products and have a base line for my reviewing process.
Firstly I have very dry, sensitive and aging skin.
I prefer oil based products, and I prefer something with a natural scent like lavender, rose, rosemary.
I try to keep my reviews concise but I wanted to share my star ratings as I see them.
5 Stars - Would use every day. Great product, does great things!
4 Stars- Great Product but not for everyday use, 2-3 days per week or spa day special.
3 Stars- Not great, not awful, just ok.
2 Stars- Not good, but not injurious
1 Star- Terrible, burns, or unsafe product

Finally a razor for women that's gentle where it matters and powerful where it counts.
I could tell right away that this razor was designed with women in mind. It petite enough to fit in curves, but not so small that you spend all day grooming. Bonus feature - unlike some razors you can charge it with or without the stand. For someone on the go, having a rechargeable razor that's compact for travel and uses the same cord as my phone is a HUGE win. Other things I liked: it has a nice touch to it and it balances well in my hand. It's easy to hold and maneuver. You can use it both as a trimmer for quick shaping and for a close shave. A note on this: Any shaver will pull hairs if you use it incorrectly. Start with the straight trimmer for longer hairs. Watch your angle and adjust as needed. Do an internet search for videos to help. Use the guards if your hair is especially long. Only switch to the round shaver with really short hair or stubble. I had zero issues with pulled hairs. It truly is painless as advertised. The shave quality was close and baby smooth with zero skin irritation. It functions exactly as advertised and the battery life was excellent. Truth be told, it's winter so it's been a while since I last shaved my legs. I needed the extended time. Having both a trimmer and razor in one tool is fantastic value and time saver. Clean up was simple. I'm happy to finally have a women's razor that works as it should.
