Description:
LONGLISTED FOR THE 2020 CUNDILL HISTORY PRIZE


Valkyries- the female supernatural beings that choose who dies and who lives on the battlefield. They protect some, but guide spears, arrows and sword blades into the bodies of others. Viking myths about valkyries attempt to elevate the banality of war to make the pain and suffering, the lost limbs and deformities, the piles of lifeless bodies of young men, glorious and worthwhile. Rather than their death being futile, it is their destiny and good fortune, determined by divine beings. The women in these stories take full part in the power struggles and upheavals in their communities, for better or worse.


Drawing on the latest historical and archaeological evidence, Valkyrie introduces readers to the dramatic and fascinating texts recorded in medieval Iceland, a culture able to imagine women in all kinds of roles carrying power, not just in this world, but pulling the strings in the other-world, too. In the process, this fascinating book uncovers the reality behind the myths and legends to reveal the dynamic, diverse lives of Viking women.

Glow and fight crepey neck!
Size: 0.42 Fl Oz (Pack of 6)
Favorite in my routine. I love Vaseline lotions and this is a perfect last step to my neck and hands every morning. Gives a boost of hydration and a nice glow to my neck. I think this is keeping me from crepey neck skin. Gotta fight that ladies! I use this several times a day and have it to all my friends for Xmas.

Something is different
Size: 0.42 Fl Oz (Pack of 6)
Product seems okay, but something has changed about it. Perhaps a different ingredient. Something different about the smell and texture. Still smells good, not greesy, and absorbs into skin like the past products I have purchased, but definitely something has changed.

Good price for the quality
Size: 14.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using Gold Bond Men’s Essentials Everyday Moisture Body & Hand Lotion for a long time now and honestly I really like it. The smell is nice and clean, not too strong or overpowering. It works great for daily use and keeps my skin feeling soft and good moisturized all day. Absorbs pretty fast and doesn’t feel greasy, which I like. For the price, it’s a really good deal and lasts a long time. Pros: Nice smell Good moisturizing Been using this for long time Good price for the quality Cons: The only problem I had was the shipping took way too long. It’s kind of unusual for Amazon. Overall, still a solid product and I would buy it again.

Does exactly what it says, no fuss
Size: 14.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Been using this every morning after my shower for the past few weeks and my dry, cracked hands have made a real comeback. It absorbs fast — no greasy residue, no waiting around. The scent is clean and subtle, nothing overpowering. For $11 and a bottle that actually lasts, this is a no-brainer. Solid everyday lotion for guys who just want something that works.
