Frances FitzGerald's landmark history of Vietnam and the Vietnam War, "A compassionate and penetrating account of the collision of two societies that remain untranslatable to one another." (New York Times Book Review) This magisterial work, based on Frances FitzGerald's many years of research and travels, takes us inside the history of Vietnam--the traditional, ancestor-worshiping villages, the conflicts between Communists and anti-Communists, Catholics and Buddhists, generals and monks, the disruption created by French colonialism, and America's ill-fated intervention--and reveals the country as seen through Vietnamese eyes. Originally published in 1972, FIRE IN THE LAKE was the first history of Vietnam written by an American, and subsequently won the Pulitzer Prize, the Bancroft Prize, and the National Book Award. With a clarity and insight unrivaled by any author before it or since, Frances FitzGerald illustrates how America utterly and tragically misinterpreted the realities of Vietnam.Binding Type: Paperback

So far I like it
I bought this combo because I have used the ordinary before and liked the results. So far I’m not a fan of the lotion, feels a bit too thick for my liking. But other 2 products so far are making my skin look brighter and hydrated. I didn’t break out at first with the oil because I’m sensitive to too much oil but my skin adjusted to it. Definitely value for your money.

30+ years of daily rosacea symptoms (cheeks, raccoon eyes, hot flashes, occasional small bumps)
Had an immediate and significant positive effect on my facial rosacea. Symptoms have reduced by approximately 80% over the course of a month or so, greatly reduced the frequency of uncomfortable social situations and associated ruminations. Excellent value for money as well, but if you have facial hair you will end up using a little extra every wash.
Sulfur based products reduce my rosacea, but cause an excessive amount of exfoliation on my face several hours after washing. Azelaic acid did not seem to aggravate my skin in that way. It's probably worth trying this one first, I was prepared to seek medical intervention to stop this.

So far, so good!
Love the texture and it seems to calm my sensitive skin! I definitely recommend following the suggestion to let the product sit on your skin for 30-60 seconds, I think it really helps boost the effectiveness

Gentle and genuinely soothing for hyperactive skin
I've been looking to switch my skin care line, since the one I have been using for a few years just keeps increasing their prices. I'm so glad I found this line! Clean ingredients and genuinely good for any skin type. The cleanser is gentle and I like that it doesn't foam. Leave it on for up to a minute after massaging it in and see results after just two uses! My skin is firmer and more even-toned. Hughly recommended using it with the exfoliator and moisturizer!
