Most Dangerous: Daniel Ellsberg and the Secret History of the Vietnam War is New York Times bestselling author Steve Sheinkin's award-winning nonfiction account of an ordinary man who wielded the most dangerous weapon: the truth.

In 1964, Daniel Ellsberg was a U.S. government analyst, helping to plan a war in Vietnam. It was the height of the Cold War, and the government would do anything to stop the spread of communism--with or without the consent of the American people.

As the fighting in Vietnam escalated, Ellsberg turned against the war. He had access a top-secret government report known as the Pentagon Papers, and he knew it could blow the lid off of years of government lies. But did he have the right to expose decades of presidential secrets? And what would happen to him if he did it?

A lively book that interrogates the meanings of patriotism, freedom, and integrity, the National Book Award finalist Most Dangerous further establishes Steve Sheinkin--author of Newbery Honor book Bomb as a leader in children's nonfiction.

This thoroughly-researched and documented book can be worked into multiple aspects of the common core curriculum.

"Gripping."--New York Times Book Review

"A master of fast-paced histories... this] is Sheinkin's most compelling one yet. "--Washington Post

Great quality for the price!
Color: Glistening Bronze
This body shimmer oil gives a really nice sun-kissed glow without looking overly glittery. The shimmer is subtle and smooth, so it catches the light in a flattering way instead of looking chunky or artificial. It works especially well on areas like the shoulders, collarbones, and legs for that summer glow effect. The texture is lightweight and absorbs nicely into the skin. It doesn’t feel greasy, and it leaves the skin feeling soft and moisturized after applying. The bronze shade adds a warm tone that enhances natural skin color while still looking natural. It’s also pretty versatile. You can use it on its own for a glowing finish or mix a small amount with foundation, lotion, or sunscreen to add a bit of radiance. It blends easily and spreads evenly, so a little goes a long way. The result is smooth, hydrated skin with a subtle luminous shine that looks great in sunlight.

Glowy but not sure about the spf
Color: Glistening Bronze
My first impression was that this works more like a basic body shimmer than anything else. The Glistening Bronze shade gives a noticeable glow, especially on arms and shoulders. It spreads easily and adds a warm shimmer in the light, but the overall effect feels pretty simple and more cosmetic than skincare focused. In use, the oil blends in smoothly and feels lightweight on the skin. It does leave a bit of moisture behind, similar to a light body oil, and the shimmer shows up well outdoors. The bronze tone is fairly deep, so it seems better suited for medium to darker skin tones or anyone who wants a stronger bronzed glow. The product mentions SPF 45, but there is very little information about the sun protection side of it, so I personally treat this more like a shimmer oil than a sunscreen. Overall, this is fine if you are mainly looking for a body shimmer that adds glow and a bronzed look. It does the job of giving skin a subtle shine and a bit of hydration, but it does not stand out as anything particularly special. I would recommend it mostly for people who want a simple shimmering body oil rather than relying on it for sun protection.
