Recent Reads of a Retired Bibliophile: Part 2 - Non-Fiction

I retired from teaching in June of 2022 and was thrilled that I could read whatever I wanted whenever I wanted without the restrictions of curriculum and the school calendar. These are the works of non-fiction I've read/or listened to ( I love history audiobooks) since my retirement. I don't know what it all means, but I sure had a lot of fun reading this stuff. Hopefully, you'll enjoy some of it as well.
