Sheep Wool Insulation Comes To America Image credit Oregon Shepherd It is common in New Zealand and a luxury in the UK, but now sheep wool insulation has come to America, via Oregon Shepherd. There is a lot to love about this stuff; "This all-natural and inherently fire-retardant material is non-toxic, resists mold growth, is vermin resistant and is acoustically superior." "Our Sheep Make it All Possible And We Take Pride in Keeping Them Well Cared For!" The company lists a number of significant benefits: The unique advantage of wool as an insulator is the NATURE of the fiber. It absorbs and desorbs moisture, it heats and cools as this process takes place.

Ostensibly, readers can take in the book, published in 1933, as Stein writing about Alice B. Toklas (which is what the title suggests) or as Toklas “writing” about Stein (which is what the book actually is). Either way, The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas was groundbreaking in its experimentation with form: an autobiography written by another person. Next Black Boy
