Finalist for the 1991 National Book Award and a New York Times Notable book, Praying for Sheetrock is the story of McIntosh County, a small, isolated, and lovely place on the flowery coast of Georgia--and a county where, in the 1970s, the white sheriff still wielded all the power, controlling everything and everybody. Somehow the sweeping changes of the civil rights movement managed to bypass McIntosh entirely. It took one uneducated, unemployed black man, Thurnell Alston, to challenge the sheriff and his courthouse gang--and to change the way of life in this community forever.

switched from Mobil 1
Size: 5 Quarts
always used Mobil 1, my 2003 accord v6 always burned a little bit of oil, switched to this and it barely burns any at all now.
will continue to use this from now on.

ITS GOOD OIL
Size: 5 Quarts
OVERALL NOT BAD BUT USING IT TO SEASON A CAST IRON WILL CREATE A BIT TOO DARK OF A SHEEN. WISH THE MANUFACTURER MENTIONED THAT

Good For History Lovers
I doubt anyone who does not want to read a true historical book with a lot of facts but not as exciting as a non-fiction novel will enjoy this. I liked it because I learned a lot of things about New York that I was really surprised to read. Seems my beloved New York had a pretty bloody, violent history towards slaves and Catholics and some others the leaders and people did not like. I didn't realize the punishments of the day were just as bad, if not worse, than those of the Salem Witch hunt days. Beware, some of the content may turn your stomach.
