Rivers have acted as cradles for civilization and agents of disaster; a river may be a barrier or a highway, it can support trade and sediment, culture and conflict. This Very Short Introduction is a celebration of rivers in all their diversity. Geographer Nick Middleton covers a wide and eclectic range of river-based themes, from physical geography to mythology, to industrial history and literary criticism. Offering a truly global look at rivers, with examples from all continents, including Egypt, India, and Bangladesh, Middleton considers the role that rivers have played in human history from settlements and trade to warfare, and also looks at the human impact upon rivers by the construction of dams and cutting of channels.Binding Type: Paperback

Cool and moist
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 2)
I had to get away from scented products and this one was cleared by my ACDS app. It is small, not resealable, but easy to use, and cleans well, the wipes are sturdy, and just wet enough to clean without needing extra drying. These are travel size and have to be kept in a zip lock after opening.

Good choice for sensitive skin
Size: 25 Count (Pack of 1)
I purchased this in preparation for a trip. I wanted to be able to clean my face while on a flight but have super sensitive skin so normal makeup wipes burn and cause a lot of irritation. These are very similar to baby wipes. They have virtually no scent and work relatively well in getting off sunscreen. I haven tried with makeup yet so I can’t speak on that. I used about 2 or 3 and my face didn’t burn at all. I think it’s a good choice for those who want the convenience of a makeup wipe but can’t use regular ones.

Very gentle, yet effective
Size: 25 Count (Pack of 1)
These are a great bang for your buck! My daughter struggles with her sensitive skin. These make up wipes are so soft and feels like a gentle clothe. No obnoxious smells, and resealable. Perfect for traveling. Her skin feels great after wiping off the most stubborn water proof make up. The price makes it a no brainer!
