A biography of one of the Middle Ages' most controversial, reckless, and heroic figures

Born in France in the early thirteenth century to a crusading father of the same name, Simon de Montfort traveled to England in his adulthood, where he claimed the earldom of Leicester and ingratiated himself into King Henry III's inner circles. Initially a trusted advisor, Simon's good relationship with the king did not last. Frustrated by the increasing injustice meted out to his subjects, Simon would go on to rebel against him, marching on the king's hall at Westminster and leading England's first revolution, and imposing a parliamentary system on Henry's rule.

Montfort's life touched on nearly every notable event of the thirteenth century, from the holy wars being fought both abroad and closer to home, to the rebellion against the Plantagenets, to his campaigns against Jews in Leicester. The account of his death in battle-swinging his sword to the last-is one of the most graphic ever written of a medieval battlefield. Ambler provides a living portrait of the Middle Ages, brimming with illuminating insights into religion, society, the nobility, warfare, and daily life. In the words of bestselling historian Dan Jones, Ambler is "a dazzlingly talented historian" and her book on Simon de Montfort "marks the arrival of a formidably gifted historian."

Love that I can use this as my only makeup!
Color: Medium, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve tried a lot of sunscreens over the years, and this is one of the few mineral sunscreens that I actually enjoy wearing. The CeraVe Hydrating Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 feels much lighter on my skin than most mineral formulas I’ve used. It goes on smoothly, doesn’t feel greasy, and keeps my skin feeling hydrated even when I’m outside in the summer heat. One of my favorite things about it is the tint. It blends in nicely and gives my skin a natural, healthy appearance instead of leaving a white cast. It also provides a surprisingly decent amount of coverage for a sunscreen, helping to even out my skin tone without looking like I’m wearing makeup. I also like that it doesn’t leave my skin feeling heavy or suffocated throughout the day. It wears comfortably whether I’m gardening, at the pool, or just spending time outdoors with my family. The ingredients are gentle, and I haven’t had any issues with irritation. If you’re looking for a lightweight mineral sunscreen that provides good sun protection, a natural-looking tint, and comfortable everyday wear, I would definitely recommend giving this one a try.

Exceptionally nice and light for older skin (with a couple of caveats)
Color: Medium, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Color: Medium, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
At 75, foundation can be a real challenge, too heavy and it settles into fine lines, looking caked on, and it will make you look way older than you are! I've always leaned toward a natural finish anyway, so when I discovered this tinted moisturizer at such a great price I was super happy! For the most part, it delivers. It has a noticeable luminous finish that reads as "shiny" on my skin, and it won't do much to conceal age spots (though honestly, I'm fully aware, that's not what a tinted moisturizer is designed for.) A dab of concealer handles my brown spots and for the shine, a light dusting of mineral powder does the trick. The SPF is of course, a big bonus. If you're an active outdoors person who wants effortless, natural-looking light coverage without the weight of a foundation, this is it.

Hydrating Tinted Mineral Sunscreen with Great Coverage
Color: Medium, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I really loved this tinted mineral sunscreen. Besides providing excellent sun protection, it gives the skin a natural and even tone that looks beautiful. The texture is lightweight, hydrating, and doesn’t feel heavy on the skin. It also helps cover small imperfections without looking cakey or artificial. Perfect for everyday use to keep the skin protected and moisturized.
