My dad has taken up reading again recently. For whatever reason he's decided that he is only reading non-fictions, but it's better than nothing! He has almost worked his way through my non-fiction books so I need to find him some other books! The types of books he likes are ones that make you think (Malcolm Gladwell), political biographies (Tony Blair), and interesting books on things that have happened in history (An Ordinary Man/Unbroken). He doesn't care much for the entertainment world, or frivolous things.

I'm willing to give up 2 of my books for one of yours I am travelling to the USA at the end of May so I will mail them out then.

Here's what I have available:

Has he read Bill Bryson?

He's not big on travelogues, for whatever reason

I will see what I have. Does he like Simon Winchester? I'm certain I have at least one of his books lying around the house.

He's never read Simon Winchester but I remember my dad and Elsi had a conversation about his books and he said they sounded interesting. That may be a good pick Zosime Let me know what you'd like in return!!

I wish I could help. I don't read a lot of non fiction and when I do it's usually humorous.
