Killers of the FLower Moon - Osage Murders story I had no clue about and really enjoyed

Braddocks Defeat - The Battle of the Mongahela great history on the kickoff of the French Indian War

Isaac's Storm - a little slow at first, but Erik Larson's first book. A tale of the Galveston Hurricane...really shows how far we have advanced in certain things

I read this a few months back… was on a hurricane kick for some reason…. Then went straight to Eric Jay Dolins Furious sky- a 500 year history of American hurricanes

What’s crazy is reading an entire book about the Galveston hurricane and then Dolin writes like 2 sentences about the same event almost as an afterthought
