Markd9528's "Last 100 Nonfiction Books Read"

I feel this collection of nonfiction works cements my claim of being a fun yet thoughtful guy, even 'hipsterish' (at least for a non-smoking, non-drinking old codger). With a tangential glimpse into my medium-term future.
BTW, don't miss out on my challenge at the link, which seems to have gone largely unnoticed, despite the quality of the 'gold medal' books therein. Has the Northern Hemisphere been on summer holidays perhaps?
