Ishmael Reed has created a sharp, wildly funny slave's-eye view of the Civil War.

Three slaves infected with Dysaethesia Aethipica (a term coined in the nineteenth century for the disease that makes Negroes run away) escape from Virginia. Not satisfied with leaving slavery halfway, one of the trio has vowed to go the whole distance to Canada; his master, Arthur Swille, determined to recover his property, pursues, hot on Raven Quickskill's trail.

With myth-bending ingenuity, Reed merges history, fantasy, political reality, and high comedy as he parodies the fugitive slave narrative: the slave-poet Quickskill flees to Canada on a nonstop jumbo jet; Abe Lincoln waltzes through slave quarters to the tune of "Hello Dolly"; the plantation mistress lies in bed watching the Beecher Hour on TV. Flight to Canada's preposterous episodes leap out from the pages of history to reveal a keen sense of America past and present.

Works Like a Charm; Clean, Simple Supplement.
Size: 500 Count (Pack of 1)
NOW Foods Psyllium Husk Caps 500 are exactly what I was looking for. They work really well, and I like that they don’t have unnecessary additives or fillers; just a straightforward, clean formula. Easy to take and effective in supporting digestion. Simple product that does the job consistently.

A dose is more than one pill so you need to take it throughout the day
Size: 500 Count (Pack of 1), Size: 500 Count (Pack of 1)
I am a small person who eats plenty of vegetables but still sometimes struggles with constipation, I like to take fiber to ensure regularity. These supplements aren't my favorite. Psyllium Husk is supposed to the one of the best kinds of fiber but I find I need to take a lot of these pills for the same effect - a dose is 6-9 pills a day, spread out. Other brands I've been able to take 1 a day and that's enough but these I need 2-4. The flavor is mild but noticeable, there is no aftertaste at all. The pills are capped in soft plastic and not too big so they're very easy to swallow. You get 500 in a bottle so definitely getting your money's worth.

Love it!

Love this supplement! Had lowered my cholesterol as I have not changed my diet much. This supplement does not give me indigestion unlike some other brands I have tried.
