My grandmother told me to question everything, including what I was taught in school. Even something as simple as who discovered North America. It wasn't Columbus. But it also wasn't Amerigo Vespucci, and yet we're named after him. LOL I didn't learn that in school. I should have added a caveat though, because there are incidences of "sides" being more barbarous. Thank you for commenting and sharing. I appreciate it.
Thomas Jefferson was really close to Lafayette. I think there were probably a lot who liked him. When he returned in 1824, 80000 people were at the harbor to welcome him. It was reported only 4000 were at the Beatles arrival. He was super loved by Americans. I am a Lafayette lover. Can you tell? Can’t wait for your review. I have the Ron Chernow books on Hamilton and Washington. The Hamilton is a big book too.
Hello~ How are you doing in the heat? Yes, Lafayette and Jefferson were friends, but the person I'm thinking of is lesser known; it's not Washington, not Jefferson, not Franklin. It is really bugging me. I read it somewhere, possibly Valiant Ambition and it was, "oh! I didn't know that!" And now I've forgotten. 🤦♀ If you find out, can you let me know? Or, maybe I'll find out in the the Lafayette book. LOL Chernow definitely writes big books. I think my son has started Hamilton. Today I asked him how long it took him to read Washington and he said about three months. sigh, three months! That will put me into September! Are you reading anything right now?
@@BookZealotsI just finished up a Sharon Kay penman historical fiction. I need to finish Lee by Allen guelzo. I about halfway through. I have3 Ron chernow books but have only read grant. It was 95 here today hear index 106. I put out water and had a frog a lizard and a CB hawk drinking. There are 2 creeks so the wildlife has a water source. I have a rat snake living in my detached garage. I need to put out water for him. I’m about over this hot weather but I don’t like the really cold either. Do you subscribe to the channel passage of time. She reads mostly historical books and biographies of historical people. She focuses a lot on royal history which I know you’re not interested in reading. I really like her channel. I invited her to the David McCullough book read along. I can’t wait for your review on Lafayette. Fast reading. Just kidding!!! I am gonna try to go to McKay’s tomorrow to find the David McCullough books I don’t hav. See if they have them before I order them. You left having suspense with the books you didn’t show us. I always enjoy seeing your books.
@@user-iz6cc6lz3j-Vickie Your area is slightly hotter than us. Do you have a bucket of water for your feet? Be sure to take care of yourself before the wild creatures. That is awesome you have two creeks! I think you have mentioned the channel passage of time before. 👍 No, I do not follow her. Before you had mentioned her before I had never heard of her. I hope you have lots of success at McKay's. haha, I didn't mean to leave the video with suspense about the books I didn't show. 🤣
@@user-iz6cc6lz3j-Vickie sigh. I responded with a long message and youtube deleted it. 👿 Please be very careful in the heat. Make sure you are hydrated before the wild animals. They can take care of themselves. do you use a bucket of water for your feet when the heat index is that high? Your area is slightly hotter than our area. That's interesting. Is it because you're so far south? I like that you have two creeks near you. That's really neat. You have mentioned passage of time. I do not follow her and I hadn't heard of her channel before you had mentioned her. I hope you have a wonderful and successful trip to McKay's. 📚👍 And sorry for ending the video with suspense of not showing my other books. LOL That was not my intention. Be safe. This heat is crazy.
Hi, hello and what a TBR! Yours is a lot more serious than mine for July. I finished the new Lucy Foley, Midnight Feast, this weekend and was very surprised with how much I enjoyed it! It's right up there with the Guest List and Hunting Party. I started the new Riley Sager, Middle of the Night, and now just waiting for it to pick up and get exciting. After this I'm gonna read The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn which I'm pretty excited for since I've never read it, and it will be nice to prepare for James whenever that becomes available (12 weeks as of this morning!!) Thanks again for sharing and take care!
Hi, hello~ That is great news about enjoying Midnight Feast. Yay! I hope Sager doesn't let you down. Huck Finn is good. I hated the use of a specific word. It was really overdone, but the adventure and relationship is good. Hopefully your hold will come in sooner than 12 weeks. I noticed that happens sometimes. My son said he thinks the library fabricates their holds. At least, he thinks ours does. I have no proof and hadn't even considered it until he mentioned it. Because I started noticing, if I put an audiobook on my wishlist, it's always available, but as soon as I request it there are numbeorus people who want it and are now waiting for it? 🤷♀️ it does seem suspicious. Our county isn't that big. It's just a little suspicious. Especially since the books I request aren't the popular books and then suddenly 7 people are waiting for a book I have? I hope you enjoy Huck Finn. There was only one part I felt was tedious. I didn't like it in the movie either. Hope you have a great week.
I need to try Ron Chernow(autocorrect wants to make his name Cheeto🤪). Ooooh! The Lafayette book sounds good too! I love all the Revolutionary era American history! The James Preston one also sounds good!
Defenders of the Faith is super dense. It was interesting in parts, but it covers a lot of history about a lot of topics, in a lot of land. Hahahaha, Cheeto! That's hilarious. Thank you for sharing that. From now on I'm going to think of Ron Chernow books at Cheeto books.
I started reading Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass a couple years ago (I don’t remember if I finished the book) and goodness was it powerful. Obviously I knew the life of a slave was bleak, but I didn’t understand just how intense and heartbreaking their sense of hopelessness would have been (born a slave, live as a slave, die a slave).
I'd recommend reading Uncle Tom's Cabin next. I remember reading a book I found in Savannah, GA at a museum and it was very controversial but very thought provoking. I can only imagine how heart breaking it would be too, to be promised freedom when so and so dies, but then have that promise broken. I do not know that I could be like Uncle Tom.
@@CandlewickLibrary Oh that's cool! My husband read the House of Morgan ages ago and really enjoyed it. (he's not a big book reader, so that's saying something. LOL)
I really want to read Chernow’s book on Washington. Don’t know when I will get to it. I have been to Frederick Douglass’ s home in DC. So interesting! I am mostly mood reading for July!
Hi Faith~ I wasn't even aware Frederick Douglass's home was a museum. Was this his home with his first wife or second wife? or was it the same house? Mood reading is awesome! I asked my son today how long it took him to read Washington. Three months. LOL Oh boy. I might be reading this book into September. 🤣
I would really like to read a good biography of George Washington. Do you have any recommendations? I don't want a monster of a book but anything you recommend I will consider reading it. Thank you. -James . EDIT: What are the odds! I just watch a commercial on TH-cam for a Special movie about G.W. I think it's called George An American.. something? It's on Fox hosted by Kesly Grammar?..I can't wait!
Hi James~ I do not know of a smaller book for GW. There are smaller books that have GW in them, such as Valiant Ambition, but that's not solely about him. If you watch the special on TV could you do a video reviewing it? We have no way of watching it unless it's free on youtube. LOL
I should know that a GE book would be big because he was such an awesome American. I'm not even sure when the film is going to be shown. If I can find a trailer for it I will link it because it will give you goosebumps! Just make you proud to be an American!
Yep. I seem to have gone down a rabbit trail. I did just finish the European/Ottoman/Mediterranean book and that was interesting. I just watched your Elon Musk book recommendations and left a msg. So good.
@@BookZealots You are so lucky to have Elon in your country. I wish he was in the UK doing the things he is doing. What a tour de force he is. No one is perfect, but wow.
@@ReadingIDEAS.-uz9xk I will have to give him a deeper look. I honestly don't know much about him, other than he likes rockets, bought twitter, turned it to X, believes in free speech, HUZZAH! and had the Tesla built. I'm more interested now that I've seen his audio book suggestions. LOL And that you like him. 😁
You'd be glad that just now I’ve liked your TH-cam Channel. Cos, your content was really awesome. But unfortunately, there are not much views. I noticed that your video SEO score is too weak according to your needs. Because of that, your video is not reaching your target audience. You will be glad to hear that I can help you increase your SEO score so that it is top on the first page of TH-cam which will increase your subscribers and views organically. So, if you want to do this, I await your response.
@@BookZealots Well thank you, but remember me if you think I can do it. Because I can do TH-cam SEO very well, through which your videos can go to the highest level.

I agree with history - it's important to read from a variety of viewpoints. It always opens up a new thought and things you might not consider.
My grandmother told me to question everything, including what I was taught in school. Even something as simple as who discovered North America. It wasn't Columbus. But it also wasn't Amerigo Vespucci, and yet we're named after him. LOL I didn't learn that in school.
