Ancient glaciers passed by the Driftless Area and waterways vein its interior, forming an enchanting, enigmatic landscape of sharp ridgetops and deep valleys. Across time, this rugged topography has been home to an astonishing variety of people: Sauk, Dakota, and Ho-Chunk villagers, Norwegian farmers and Mexican mercado owners, Dominican nuns and Buddhist monks, river raftsmen and Shakespearean actors, Cornish miners and African American barn builders, organic entrepreneurs and Hmong truck gardeners. The Driftless Reader gathers writings that highlight the unique natural and cultural history, landscape, and literature of this region that encompasses southwestern Wisconsin and adjacent Minnesota, Iowa, and Illinois. The more than eighty selected texts include writings by Black Hawk, Mark Twain, Laura Ingalls Wilder, Frank Lloyd Wright, Aldo Leopold, David Rhodes, and many other Native people, explorers, scientists, historians, farmers, songwriters, journalists, and poets. Paintings, photographs, maps, and other images complement the texts, providing a deeper appreciation of this region's layered natural and human history. Highlights include excerpts and art from: Carol Ryrie Brink William Cronon John T.

Quality surge protector
Size: 6 Ft, Color: Black
It’s a surge protector that works well. I just needed a simple, small, and relatively flat outlets to bring power to my daughter’s bike trainer. This provides enough outlets to power the trainer, a fan and a iPad charger.

Solid surge protector, but some outlets are a tight fit
Size: 6 Ft, Color: Black
For the price, this power strip covers all the bases — 6 outlets, 3 USB ports, and a generous 6ft cord that reaches exactly where you need it without having to rearrange furniture. The surge protection at 1680 joules gives me peace of mind having it near my electronics, and the ETL listing confirms it meets safety standards which is always reassuring with electrical products. The USB ports are a nice bonus and charge my devices at a decent speed. My main gripe is that some of the AC outlet slots are noticeably stiff and tight, making it genuinely difficult to plug certain things in — I had to use a bit more force than I was comfortable with on a couple of them. It loosens up slightly with use but out of the box it was more of a struggle than it should be. Not a dealbreaker but something worth knowing especially if you're plugging in bulkier adapters. Overall a good functional surge protector for a home office or dorm room setup at a very reasonable price

Great thick surgery protector
Size: 20 Ft, Color: White
I am so glad there was a 20ft option. Our house is 104 years old and sockets were very scarce. I guess when we updated the electric we should have added more sockets lol I have a desktop Coca-Cola fridge and I run a desktop Vornado fan year round. So this was the perfect length to plug these 2 items in. I liked that this has a large extension cord on it. Feels very furable and that it has more meat in it yo protect my items vs the thin corded ones. It also has places to charge USB or USB C. Love the design a lot. Having the prongs turned to add from side works perfect and leaves more room for additional plugs. Very portable and no noise whatsoever.
