Ilyon Woo's The Great Divorce is a dramatic, richly textured narrative history of early America's most infamous divorce case. A young mother singlehandedly challenged her country's notions of women's rights, family, and marriage itself--all in a bid to win back her kidnapped children from the celibate, religious sect known as the Shakers. Pulling together the pieces of this saga from crumbled newspapers, Shaker diaries, and long-forgotten letters, Woo delivers the first full account of Eunice Chapman's epic five-year struggle. A moving story about the power of a mother's love, The Great Divorce is also a memorable portrait of a rousing challenge to the values of a young nation.Binding Type: Paperback

Nice throw.
Color: 01 - Beige, Size: Throw (50" X 60")
Really nice and pretty too. Very soft and warm. The weight of the throw is light but still it's warm. Turning out to be my favorite.

Might be the Goldilocks blanket
Color: 04 - Sage Green, Size: Throw (50" X 60"), Color: 04 - Sage Green, Size: Throw (50" X 60")
Everybody loves these blankets. Couch throw or super comforting blanket on top of bed covers.
My wife selected the first. Now we own 4 or 5. Wife, son, couch, gifts to niece and father.
Easy to wash; comes out new again.
Doesn't feel cheap or low quality textile like. Feels great light-medium weight! Not too hot. Not too thin or light.
Just might be the goldilocks blanket.
