A memoir of land, family and perseverance from one of the most influential writers in America. In this moving and surprising book, Joan Didion reassesses parts of her life, her work, her history – and America’s.

Joan Didion’s unerring sense of America and its spirit, her acute interpretation of its institutions and literature, and her incisive questioning of the stories it tells itself make this fiercely intelligent book a provocative and important tour de force from one of America’s greatest writers.

The book is a haunting narrative of how her own family moved west with the frontier from the birth of her great-great-great-great-great-grandmother in Virginia in 1766 to the death of her mother on the edge of the Pacific in 2001; of how the wagon-train stories of hardship and abandonment and endurance created a culture in which survival would seem the sole virtue. Didion examines how the folly and recklessness in the very grain of the California settlement led to the California we know today – a state mortgaged first to the railroad, then to the aerospace industry, and overwhelmingly to the federal government.

Good value for the money would buy again
Size: Vacuum Sealer + 30 Bags
This works great for some of the smaller items, especially whole fruits and vegetables, cheeses, meats etc. Like other vacuum sealers, anything wet is going to present a challenge. Overall very happy with this especially the convenience. Battery life on charge seems to last a relatively decent time. At first I thought it would quit working because I couldn't get any draw, however, realized that the cap had turned and needed to be repositioned. Almost acted like a off switch! But working fine chopped that one up to user error haha. As far as the reusable bags, pretty satisfied with that as well.

Great little sealer!
Size: Vacuum Sealer + 30 Bags
The vacuum sealer is wonderful, takes up very little space in the drawer and does an awesome job. We looked at some videos before we decided which one we wanted to buy. The best tip is when you are using the sealer try to have that area flat with no food under the sealer area. Love it that the bags are reuseable!

Good alternative to a full size vacuum sealer
Size: Vacuum Sealer + 30 Bags
This vacuum sealer is great. I had been reluctant to invest in a full size vacuum sealer so this was a great alternative, I’m totally sold on the versatility and ease of use. The included bags are a little tricky to close at first but they get easier to use as time goes on. The suction is sufficient for what I need (mostly storing meat bought in bulk in smaller portions in the freezer) and the bags definitely keep things fresh while preventing freezer burn. Despite the low price point the durability sees good so far with over a month of near daily use.

Great Sealer for the Price!
Size: Vacuum Sealer + 30 Bags
LOVE this portable sealer...and I own a bigger Vacuseal that I purchased from Costco. When you need a "quick and easy" sealer for foods, this works and is easy to use. It doesn't require space and I like the simple look. The bags are reusable (need to wash them) and are good quality. Just make sure that you "zip" the seal completely. Great sealer for the price!
