Jeffrey.Reads.History📚 I received this yesterday from the Ohio State Press. It has always has been an interest of mine to visit and study the Hopewell earthworks scattered about Ohio. I can’t wait to read this one soon. #science #histbookchat

Laurence Westwood #histbookchat No new book this week but decided to pick 9 histories/biographies that left me thinking 'wow!' when I got to the end! Second choice photo not great but it is Faust's Metropolis, Alexandra Richie's astonishing history of Berlin pubbed in 1999, 1000+ pages of brilliant writing!

Lisa D.H. I'm still reading the Weimar Republic Sourcebook and A Lethal Obsession but couldn't help starting a book of essays. I've worked with the elderly most of my life so I was excited about this one! I'm curious what my knowledge about the population can add to the conversation! #histbookchat #booksky
Jeffrey.Reads.History📚 Happy Publication Day Nathaniel Philbrick. I read this as an arc, but I can’t wait to reread it in this edition. This was one of the best books I read in 2026 hands down. #histbookchat
Jeffrey.Reads.History📚 I am currently reading The Johnstown Flood by David McCullough. It is so hard to put this book down. I have read about 30 percent of it. It has suspense, dread, and a compelling story with some interesting characters. If you haven’t read it yet, do it. #histbookchat
