from Mariner Books
Price: $6.99

Customer Review:
One of the rare books to tell the real story of the dust bowl. Filled with real people stories and their stamina, grit and fortitude. I was so shocked that people endured this kind of hardship and for such a long period of time. Incredible. Must read.

3.The Wordy Shipmates (Thorndike Large Print Laugh Lines)The Wordy Shipmates (Thorndike Large Print Laugh Lines)
from Thorndike Press
Price: $25.00

Customer Review:
Sarah Vowell jumps around much too much. She is consistent in her lack of focus on the subject. One moment you are reading about the Puritans (the subject) and in the next moment your are in another century reading about the Vietnam War. No you did not accidentally flip a couple pages. That is the... more info

4.The Hemingses of Monticello: An American FamilyThe Hemingses of Monticello: An American Family
from Tantor Media
Price: $26.86

Customer Review:
I received what I ordered on time and in perfect condition, well packaged. I had checked the book out of the library, but it was in terrible condition. It is a 600+-page book, so I am happy to have my own copy to read over time (and it is so well worth reading).

from Anchor
Price: $9.80

Customer Review:
I got this book on the recommendation of a friend and just before we did a 3 week trip to New Mexico and Arizona in the fall of 2009. The book is very well written and with my prior knowledge of the area, it was a wonderful way to read and prepare for our trip. The authors style is easy to read and... more info

6.Assassination VacationAssassination Vacation
from Simon & Schuster
Price: $9.88

Customer Review:
Two of my best friends recommended this book to me, and I'm glad they did because I probably wouldn't have picked it up on my own. Presidential assassinations? Uh... no thanks. I was alive to see the assassinations of a number of prominent people, and frankly, that seemed like enough for me.... more info

7.The Island at the Center of the World: The Epic Story of Dutch Manhattan and the Forgotten Colony That Shaped AmericaThe Island at the Center of the World: The Epic Story of Dutch Manhattan and the Forgotten Colony That Shaped America
from Vintage
Price: $8.53

Customer Review:
This is a lot of fun to read. I bought the audio book as well and could not stop listening to this. I am Dutch and was unaware of the details and history. I was able to link so many of the stories to things I had learned as a child and through my parents. Definitely worth the while.

from Large Print Distribution
Price: $10.85

Customer Review:
The story of the Pilgrims is well known to all Americans; or is it? Nathaniel Philbrick uses the familiar story of the Pilgrims, the tiny ship "Mayflower," Plymouth Rock, the first Thanksgiving, Miles Standish, and the like as the touchstone to recreate this time and place in elegant prowse. In so... more info

9.Traitor to His Class: The Privileged Life and Radical Presidency of Franklin Delano RooseveltTraitor to His Class: The Privileged Life and Radical Presidency of Franklin Delano Roosevelt
from Doubleday
Price: $13.23

Customer Review:
In the landscape of historical books there is a plethora of long gone forests expended in describing the life and times of Franklin Delano Roosevelt. I have read two rather distinctive and thorough accounts of FDR being Conrad Black's "Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Champion of Freedom" and Doris Kearns... more info

from Pocket Books
Price: $6.63

Customer Review:
I hardly knew anything about the expedition before this book which provides a lot of incredible information from Meriwether Lewis. But as the book describes, it's all from Lewis. We don't know anything about Clark's version or any of the other men who kept journals. The expedition split up several... more info
