Really incredible story that takes you back to the pre war era of the 1930s

Into the Fire
By Greg Hurwitz
It's Jason Bourne + James Bond, except better than either! I'm not a big Spy Thriller fan, but the Orphan X series is a a lot of fun

The First Conspiracy
By Brad Meltzer
This delves into the history of the attempts on George Washington's life early in the Revolutionary War. I can only imagine how different our country would have turned out without him!

Alexander Hamilton
By Ron Chernow
I've read a lot of McCollough, and while I really enjoy his work, Chernow just blows this thing out of the water. The musical is unbelievable, but the true story is even wilder.

Failure Is Not and Option
By Gene Kranz
You get a full sense of how unprepared we actually were for the space race, they literally were flying by the seat of their pants! And they were working with the slimmest of margins.

Self Portrait in Black and White
By Thomas Chatterton Williams
This is a really interesting book, his unique perspective is quite eye opening. If you want a book to mull over for a while, this is the one for you.

This is another one that will keep you on your feet. It whips you back and forth through different times and places, you won't put it down!

Born a Crime
By Trevor Noah
If you want to experience what growing up in a completely different world is like, you should read this book. He delves into his own past and the past of South Africa in a way only someone who experienced it could.
