Miles from Nowhere: Tales from America's Contemporary Frontier"In this splendid book a gifted observer and a terrific idea have come together in a real love match. In 1990, a century after the census bureau's famous observation of the frontier's imminent end, Dayton Duncan set out in an aging GMC Suburban to visit a large sampling of counties outside Alaska that have fewer than two persons per square mile the bureau's old standard for places still in a frontier condition. There are 132 such counties. All are in
"In this splendid book a gifted observer and a terrific idea have come together in a real love match. In 1990, a century after the census bureau's famous observation of the frontier's imminent end, Dayton Duncan set out in an aging GMC Suburban to visit a large sampling of counties outside Alaska that have fewer than two persons per square mile--the bureau's old standard for places still in a frontier condition. There are 132 such counties. All are in the West. . . . The result of his tour is an insightful and entertaining book, troubling and funny and consistently illuminating. . . . Much of the book's charm comes from Duncan's sketches of people who choose to live 'miles from nowhere'--ranchers in the Nebraska sandhills, a New Mexican bar owner, a priest and United Parcel Service driver along the Texas-Mexico border, and the descendant of a Seminole Negro army scout in west Texas. In them he finds characteristics associated with the mythic frontier. . . . Great fun to read."--Montana Born and raised in a small town in Iowa, Dayton Duncan has been a reporter, humor columnist, editorial writer, chief of staff to a governor, and deputy press secretary for presidential campaigns. He lives in Walpole, New Hampshire. His books include Out West: An American Journey, also available in a Bison Books edition.Binding Type: Paperback

Life saver for your skin
Set name: KOJIC
I was skeptical before buying this. my skin dries out so quickly and lotions is just a temporary fix for dry skin. I was amazed that the first time I used it all the dry skin was peeling off such a simple solution. I’ll never be without it now you have to try it to believe it.

Good product
Set name: KOJIC
I have used 1/2 bottle since December. Easy to use on dry skin, I use it before showering. I Probably don’t use it enough, simply because I forget. I have had dry peeling skin on my forehead recently and thought, oh I should use it there. I have to say, it made a big difference. One use and the dry skin came off and my forehead looks much better. I was having a hard time with makeup looking splotchy and now it goes on smooth.

Makes the skin smooth and soft
Set name: KOJIC
The product is wonderful. The first time I used it, it took off alot of the dead skin on my feet. Better than the "egg" or pumas stone. And bonus my hands are rough to and while rubbing on feet it rubbed off my hands as well and the hands are smoother too. NICE. Has a vick's vapor rub smell to it. Not overly strong. Im looking forward to having my feet smooth for the first time, ever!!! The only thing is the bottle it comes in. I could not get the sprayer to work. The off button worked beautifully but the on button did not work. When on it pumped but nothing came out. I even had my family and friends try to get it to work, but to no avail. So I put it in another spray bottle which worked and it was fine. Love the product!

Works great,smells like Noxema
Set name: KOJIC
This is a great exfoliater. I use it once a week from face to toes. The smell reminds me of Noxema wich I'm not fond of but it's dose rinse off well. Works on both wet and dry skin wich I like better than a different brand which only works on dry skin.

No change in hyperpigmentation
Set name: KOJIC
I've suffered with hyperpigmentation on my armpits and have been using this for about a month now. I don't see a difference as far as the hyperpigmentation. I use it every other day before I shower but I will give three stars since it does smell great and leaves my armpits feeling soft after each use.
