When needing an easy read, it's non-fiction.

Almost 100% biograhies of great men/woman, who shaped our country in a positive manner.

Some writers like Doris Kearns Goodwin and Jean Edward Smith, (male), write biographies that make history come alive.

I know that's hard to believe, but they write long books and thoroughly research their subjects. Some fascinating reads reads like Team of Rivals - The political genius of Abraham Lincoln, (Goodwin), FDR, Grant, (Smith) and The Bully Pulpit by Goodwin.
