A Los Angeles Times Book Prize Finalist in History

Winner of the 2018 Marine Corps Heritage Foundation Greene Award for a distinguished work of nonfiction.

The first battle book from Mark Bowden since his #1 New York Times bestseller Black Hawk Down, Hue 1968, "an instantly recognizable classic of military history" (Christian Science Monitor), was published to massive critical acclaim and became a New York Times bestseller.

In the early hours of January 31, 1968, the North Vietnamese launched over one hundred attacks across South Vietnam in what would become known as the Tet Offensive. The lynchpin of Tet was the capture of Hue, Vietnam's intellectual and cultural capital, by 10,000 National Liberation Front troops who descended from hidden camps and surged across the city of 140,000. Within hours the entire city was in their hands save for two small military outposts. American commanders refused to believe the size and scope of the Front's presence, ordering small companies of marines against thousands of entrenched enemy troops. After several futile and deadly days, Lieutenant Colonel Ernie Cheatham would finally come up with a strategy to retake the city in some of the most intense urban combat since World War II.

With unprecedented access to war archives in the U.S. and Vietnam and inter-views with participants from both sides, Bowden narrates each stage of this crucial battle through multiple viewpoints. Played out over twenty-four days and ultimately costing 10,000 lives, the Battle of Hue was the bloodiest of the entire war. When it ended, the American debate was never again about winning, only about how to leave. Hue 1968 is a gripping and moving account of this pivotal moment.

Good non-toxic option
I like how it scores well on Yuka. I use it daily under my makeup, but it's INCREDIBLY oily which sucks because my skin is already oily. It also leaves a slight white cast so just a warning for those with darker skin. Other than that I like it!

COVERGIRL Outlast All-Day Lip Color Custom Nudes, 960 Universal Nude
Color: 960 Universal Nude, Size: 0.07 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Product Review: COVERGIRL Outlast All-Day Lip Color Custom Nudes (960 Universal Nude)Rating: ★★★★★If you are looking for a reliable, "set it and forget it" lip product that actually lives up to its long-wear claims, the COVERGIRL Outlast All-Day Lip Color in 960 Universal Nude is an absolute standout. Part of the Custom Nudes collection, this shade is designed to be a universally flattering neutral that works for a wide range of skin tones. Why This Lip Color is a Must-Have: True 24-Hour Wear: This is one of the few formulas on the market that truly stays put. It is food-proof, transfer-proof, and kiss-proof. Once it sets, you don't have to worry about it feathering into fine lines or smudging onto your coffee cup. The Perfect Two-Step System: The secret to this product’s comfort is the two-step process. The base coat provides intense, pigment-rich color, while the moisturizing top coat (the "balm" stick) seals in the color and adds a healthy shine. It prevents that "dry, cracked" feeling often associated with long-wear liquid lipsticks. Flattering "Universal Nude" Shade: Shade 960 is a beautifully balanced neutral. It has just enough warmth to look natural without being too orange or too washed out, making it the perfect "your lips but better" choice for daily wear. Budget-Friendly Professional Results: It delivers a high-end, polished look that rivals luxury long-wear brands at a fraction of the cost. It’s a reliable staple for weddings, long workdays, or any event where you won't have time for touch-ups. Final Verdict: The COVERGIRL Outlast All-Day Lip Color is a powerhouse in the world of drugstore makeup. It offers incredible longevity, a comfortable finish, and a shade in 960 Universal Nude that is incredibly easy to style with any outfit. It is the ultimate solution for anyone who wants a flawless lip look that lasts from their morning coffee all the way through dinner!

This is a great product. I have a lot of dental work and wearing regular lipstick was a problem. I tried this and it doesn’t get clumpy. It lasted for hours, does not rub off. no taste, shine after applying top coat, easy application, great price
