Iowa six-player girls' basketball was the most successful sporting activity for girls in American history, at its zenith involving more than 70 percent of the girls in the state. The state tournament was so popular--regularly drawing fifteen thousand fans, more than the boys' tourney--that officials declined a lucrative broadcasting offer from ABC's Wide World of Sports rather than forfeit the Iowa Girls' High School Athletic Union's control of the game. The Only Dance in Iowa chronicles the one-hundred-year history of this Iowa tradition, long a symbol of the state's independence and the people's rural pride. Max McElwain shows how, well before the passage of Title IX in 1972, Iowa six-player girls' basketball was, as Sports Illustrated gushed, "a utopia for girls' athletics." He also demonstrates how, ironically enough, the fallout from Title IX in many ways led to six-girl basketball's demise. Through interviews, careful ethnography, and detailed historical analysis, McElwain exposes the intricate political, sociological, and historical dynamics of this cultural phenomenon. His book reveals how six-girl basketball, flourishing with the passionate support of Iowa's small towns, school districts, and media, came to represent the state's strong traditional beliefs and the public school system's determination to maintain its identity in the face of national educational trends. The Only Dance in Iowa is as much a study of this disappearing culture as of the game it claimed as its own.Binding Type: Paperback

Good
This thing is huge which makes it a little weird to use. It feels nice to put on, but then once it is on it feels kinda waxy I’m not really a fan. It also has a not super pleasant (in my opinion) scent. However, it lasts a long time as long as you’re not eating/drinking and it does meek moisturizing

Beef Tallow Lip Balm-honey
Nice size, comes in a box and sealed with the label for tamper protection.
Don't like the strong smell (its a weird 'old perfume' scent which is a turn off going on my lips) and most importantly it doesn't seem to moisturize at all for my winter cracked lips.

Hate to be first to leave a negative review
I'm not thrilled with being the first to leave not only a review, but a negative one at that. I ordered this as it's limited ingredients with no artificial fragrance but received it and can't get the men's perfume scent off my lips or the taste from my mouth. It's supposed to be honey as the scent, made with honey and there is no honey scent to it. I'm not sure if I got a bad batch or what as this is my first purchase with this brand. It tastes and smells like an artificial cologne. I've used other tallow products before and never had this kind of scent to it.

Light scent, super hydrating, large tube
I guess I'm in the minority lol, but I really like this lip balm. I think the smell is subtle, like honey vanilla, and I think the taste is pretty neutral. I don't have a strong sense of smell, but I hate perfumey scents, and I don't mind this at all. I found it to be super hydrating on my dry winter lips. It glides on really easily and smoothly and kind of melts onto the lips. The tube is huge too - .5 oz is at least 3 times the size of a normal chap stick. It has a great lid and there's little chance of it opening in a purse or pocket. Price is really reasonable too. I'm a fan.
