A Chicago Tribune Noteworthy BookA GoodReads Reader's Choice The summer of 1927 began with Charles Lindbergh crossing the Atlantic. Meanwhile, Babe Ruth was closing in on the home run record. In Newark, New Jersey, Alvin "Shipwreck" Kelly sat atop a flagpole for twelve days, and in Chicago, the gangster Al Capone was tightening his grip on bootlegging. The first true "talking picture," Al Jolson's The Jazz Singer, was filmed, forever changing the motion picture industry.
All this and much, much more transpired in the year Americans attempted and accomplished outsized things--and when the twentieth century truly became the American century. One Summer transforms it all into narrative nonfiction of the highest order.

Soft and warm
Color: Cream
This cashmere scarf is honestly light weight, soft and warm. My only complaint would be that the width measurement isn’t wide. Measures at 19.5 but stretches a bit. So I can’t really wrap it how i like. Despite that I love the scarf and I am keeping it. With a safety pin I’ll be able to wear it how I intend to.

Nice quality and great price
Color: Cream
This was purchased as a gift and I was a little concerned about the price for a cashmere scarf but it arrived beautifully packaged and very nice quality. My friend loves it and wears it often. The color was as advertised and perfect to wear with anything.

Versatile and warm
Size: One Size, Color: Grey Melange
The product was great in multiple settings, like hiking in a wintry mix in Michigan or walking down the cold, windy streets of Chicago. It’s better than my previous beanie, as the cashmere had more give than the more rigid one I had before, while retaining all the warmth
