Named for its mythical leader "Captain Rock," avenger of agrarian wrongs, the Rockite movement of 1821-24 in Ireland was notorious for its extraordinary violence. In Captain Rock, James S. Donnelly, Jr., offers both a fine-grained analysis of the conflict and a broad exploration of Irish rural society after the French revolutionary and Napoleonic wars.Originating in west Limerick, the Rockite movement spread quickly under the impact of a prolonged economic depression. Before long the insurgency embraced many of the better-off farmers. The intensity of the Rockites' grievances, the frequency of their resort to sensational violence, and their appeal on such key issues as rents and tithes presented a nightmarish challenge to Dublin Castle--prompting in turn a major reorganization of the police, a purging of the local magistracy, the introduction of large military reinforcements, and a determined campaign of judicial repression. A great upsurge in sectarianism and millenarianism, Donnelly shows, added fuel to the conflagration. Inspired by prophecies of doom for the Anglo-Irish Protestants who ruled the country, the overwhelmingly Catholic Rockites strove to hasten the demise of the landed elite they viewed as oppressors.
Drawing on a wealth of sources--including reports from policemen, military officers, magistrates, and landowners as well as from newspapers, pamphlets, parliamentary inquiries, depositions, rebel proclamations, and threatening missives sent by Rockites to their enemies--Captain Rock offers a detailed anatomy of a dangerous, widespread insurgency whose distinctive political contours will force historians to expand their notions of how agrarian militancy influenced Irish nationalism in the years before the Great Famine of 1845-51.

Planning on sharing the ones I didn’t care for.
I feel I have to give this a five star rating because it did come just as described, my only negative is my own personal fragrance choices. I only found two that I liked one of which I already had. I can’t take stars off for that because others may absolutely love the rest, but I can tell you that the packaging was just as seen, and it came well protected.

Terrible scents
Style: 6 Piece Discovery Set 2
If you want to smell like an old lady, this is the perfume set for you. The only semi okay scent is Santal, all the rest are unwearable and smell terrible.

Nothing Great & Not Long Lasting
Style: 6 Piece Discovery Set 2, Style: 6 Piece Discovery Set 2
Ordered this sample set to see which scent I liked best before committing to a whole bottle. Honestly none of them were a favorite or a scent I would want a whole bottle of. I liked the 11 11 out of all of them. The Midnight was the worst and I felt like it didn't fit the rest of the scents, it was very strong. I also wouldn't order any of these because the scent is not long lasting, or atleast it isn't on me.

Belgian Malinois approved
Size: Large
This ball was the perfect choice for my 8 month old Belgian Malinois. Should last for years so far it has survived all her chewing needs. It’s the perfect size so I don’t have to worry about her swallowing it.
