Like to read crime fiction, history (mostly American and war), quality fiction, current events, presidential politics and the occassional biography.

Not big on the classics, sci-fi, chick lit (sorry) or most of the best sellers (e.g., Patterson, Baldaci, Cussler, Grisham, etc...). And I refuse to read "historical fiction."

    Hi - Welcome to the History Non-Fiction Group. There are a few group rules posted at the top of the group page. Please take a moment to review and if you haven't already done so, introduce yourself in our "Welcome and Introduction" thread and tell us what your interests are. Our group reads are done on a quarterly basis and we are currently voting for the Jan - Mar Quarterly Group Read. Hope you'll join us and again, glad to have you with us.
