Winner of the 2019 Pulitzer Prize for General Nonfiction

In Amity and Prosperity, the prizewinning poet and journalist Eliza Griswold tells the story of the energy boom's impact on a small town at the edge of Appalachia and one woman's transformation from a struggling single parent to an unlikely activist.

Stacey Haney is a local nurse working hard to raise two kids and keep up her small farm when the fracking boom comes to her hometown of Amity, Pennsylvania. Intrigued by reports of lucrative natural gas leases in her neighbors' mailboxes, she strikes a deal with a Texas-based energy company. Soon trucks begin rumbling past her small farm, a fenced-off drill site rises on an adjacent hilltop, and domestic animals and pets start to die. When mysterious sicknesses begin to afflict her children, she appeals to the company for help. Its representatives insist that nothing is wrong.

Alarmed by her children's illnesses, Haney joins with neighbors and a committed husband-and-wife legal team to investigate what's really in the water and air. Against local opposition, Haney and her allies doggedly pursue their case in court and begin to expose the damage that's being done to the land her family has lived on for centuries. Soon a community that has long been suspicious of outsiders faces wrenching new questions about who is responsible for their fate, and for redressing it: The faceless corporations that are poisoning the land? The environmentalists who fail to see their economic distress? A federal government that is mandated to protect but fails on the job? Drawing on seven years of immersive reporting, Griswold reveals what happens when an imperiled town faces a crisis of values, and a family wagers everything on an improbable quest for justice.

High Quality and Surprisingly Powerful
Color: Absolute Black, Size: Z1 Motor + Batteries
The Pros: Unexpected Power: I usually know exactly what to expect with the products I order, but this unit really blew me away. It is surprisingly powerful and handles everything much better than I anticipated. Premium Batteries Included: It was a great surprise to find that it came with Duracell batteries. Seeing a name-brand battery included really speaks to the overall quality of the product and shows they aren't cutting corners. Solid Build: From the moment I set it up, the unit felt sturdy and well-constructed. It is rare to be this genuinely pleased with a purchase right out of the box. The Cons: Operating Noise: Because the motor is so powerful, it does produce a bit more noise than some weaker units. It isn't a dealbreaker, but it is noticeable during extended use. Bottom Line: This is a high-quality product that exceeded my expectations in both performance and presentation. The fact that it comes ready to go with reliable batteries is a huge plus. I am very pleased with this purchase.

Pleasantly surprised.
Color: Absolute Black, Size: Z1 Motor + Batteries
Honestly, I bought this because it was on sale and I needed to add something to my cart to get one day free shipping. I had zero expectations and thought I'd use it when I travel and won't have access to my espresso machine but I'm blown away by what it can accomplish in its small form factor. It took 30s to froth the milk and it was well-incorporated into the milk, not with just foam on top and milk at the bottom. I could have the frothed milk all day. It's easier to clean than the steam wand and it does plant-based milk cold foam!! It blows the Ikea one out of the water for about the same price point. Glad I stumbled into it!

Works great for daily use, just be prepared to replace batteries
Color: Absolute Black, Size: Z1 Motor + Batteries
I use this every morning to mix protein powder into my coffee, and it works well. It is quick, easy to use, and does a great job blending everything smoothly without clumps. For the price, it’s a great little tool and has definitely been worth it for daily use. The only downside is that I do have to replace the batteries fairly often, about every 3–4 weeks with regular use. Overall, it’s a very convenient and effective frother, especially for the cost. I would recommend it, just keep extra batteries on hand if you plan to use it daily.
