A companion book to The History Channel(R) special series of ten one-hour documentaries 10 Days That Unexpectedly Changed America pinpoints pivotal days that transformed our nation. For the series and the book, The History Channel challenged a panel of leading historians, including author Steven M. Gillon, to come up with some less well-known but historically significant events that triggered change in America. Together, the days they chose tell a story about the great democratic ideals upon which our country was built. You won't find July 4, 1776, for instance, or the attack on Fort Sumter that ignited the Civil War, or the day Neil Armstrong set foot on the moon. But January 25, 1787, is here. On that day, the ragtag men of Shays' Rebellion attacked the federal arsenal in Springfield, Massachusetts, and set the new nation on the path to a strong central government. January 24, 1848, is also on the list. That's when a carpenter named John Marshall spotted a few glittering flakes of gold in a California riverbed. The discovery profoundly altered the American dream. Here, too, is the day that noted pacifist Albert Einstein unwittingly advocated the creation of the Manhattan Project, thus setting in motion a terrible chain of events. Re-creating each event with vivid immediacy, accessibility, and historical accuracy, 10 Days That Unexpectedly Changed America comes together as a history of our country, from the first colonists' contact with Native Americans to the 1960s. It is a snapshot of our country as we were, are, and will be.Binding Type: Paperback

Gorgeous, thick, fluffy, neutral scent. PERFECT!!
Color: Ivory, Size: 2' x 6' (Double Pelt)
Size and color as described, very soft and cozy. It's made of a thick material and sewn very well. Looks to be able to withstand years of use as a recliner cover for an elderly person. The soft cushiony feeling makes sitting or laying for prolonged periods of time much easier on a body.
I'll even get more from the brand for the pets to sleep on.

Very pleased with golden yellow color and sheepskin quality
Color: Golden Yellow, Size: 2' x 6' (Double Pelt), Color: Golden Yellow, Size: 2' x 6' (Double Pelt)
For the competitive price of less than $80, I am very pleased with the quality. Thick, soft fur that sheds little to none. I had to stick my nose right in it to be aware of the sheep scent, which I found rather pleasant. Came vacuum packed but fluffed right up with a little shaking. Love the golden yellow. The color of my pics are pretty precise. I needed something to perk up my brown leather furniture and bring out the colors in my wall pictures. This does it! Miss Milly loves it too. Buying another color to further perk up my main bedroom.

Finally!! This is quality!!
Color: Ivory, Size: 2' x 6' (Double Pelt), Color: Ivory, Size: 2' x 6' (Double Pelt)
I’ve ordered three brands claiming to be luxury sheepskin rugs. I’m returning two today. THIS is the one!! So happy, I just ordered three more . I’m returning two from another brand and I won’t mention their name. Side by side there’s no comparison. The back of this rug is stitched around the edges where the other rugs have raw edges. The other rugs felt OK, but not very soft and really full of static. THIS rug feel silky soft and is noticeably longer and more dense. The other brands I ordered were a little over an inch long(fur). THIS rug ‘s fur is approx 3” long and dense. Sooo silky and plush. The only downside -and the company actually sent a guide, explaining it… is there is a slight yellow tinge. The other rugs are flat out yellow. This company explains that bright white would include toxins like formaldehyde and bleaching powder. So I’m fine w that. Just don’t put it against a bright white wall or fireplace. Otherwise it’s not noticeable. I’m sure I’ll be buying even more to put throughout my home. I could not be happier with this!!! They understood the assignment❤️❤️❤️- also- the price. About the same as the lesser rugs that are going back. LOVE. Puppy does too🤣
Ok. I came back to edit my review. Still positive. I apparently ordered ivory not white. I have two white ones coming Sunday so will report back and show color comparison. I was saying that the white isn’t white white and the company does explain what that entails. Other companies selling same color are VERY yellow and this isn’t. Also no strong smell to it. 👍

Very nice
Color: Ivory, Size: 2' x 6' ((Double Pelt) Patchwork), Color: Ivory, Size: 2' x 6' ((Double Pelt) Patchwork)
Very fast shipping and for the price a nice rug. Has a slight natural odor (not bad) because my dog keeps burying his nose in it and despite me telling him no, he keeps trying to claim it for his bed while stretching out on it. But the odor is nothing that won't go away with a little time and is not too bad. plush enough but not extremely so as I expected for the price point. I'm happy with it. I may order another in a different color, because this is a little whiter than I anticipated. But it is gorgeous and soft. Update, first two white ones came very fast , third which was light brown took nearly a month to get here but is even more gorgeous than the white ones maybe because it was shipped in a huge cavernous box and appeared to come from a different distribution center than the others . See second photo for reference. No odor to speak of on this one and very full . I love it as it is lighter than the online photos and more of the creamy brown that I was hoping for . While waiting for it was frustrating because it took so long , I finally got it and am so very happy with it.

AMAZING!
Color: Ivory, Size: 2' x 3' (Single Pelt)
Absolutely amazing and fast shipping, the fur is so thick and fluffy I almost don't want to use it for what I'm using it for, I love it so much, going to use it on top of my bareback pad on my horse to absorbe impaction and give the nomadic saddle pad look! More than happy with it and may order another!
