Wish I were reading #booksoutdoors this weekend but I‘m busy convincing myself to get things done.

And that‘s it for #riotgrams this month!

I skipped the #bookstore prompt for #riotgrams because I didn‘t want to “accidentally” buy a bunch of new books. So now, for #summerschool, here‘s my small non-fiction shelf. (Some humour mixed in here as well.)

I was almost done reading this a few years ago when it became a casualty of overdue library books. I haven‘t finished it yet but what I read was excellent. I think it should be required reading with every high school American History course. It makes a case for not using textbooks to teach history at all but rather primary documents to get the truth and not the official press release of history.

tournevis The last chapter is, in fact, funny and perfect. I've used it in courses myself. Take it up again, if you can. I still laugh when I see a Champlain statue and think about how damned hot he would be dressed like that! 5y
marleed Omg, I recall reading my son‘s 5th grade social studies with him. His version of Christopher Columbus differed vastly than my Catholic school teaching nearly 30 years earlier. I‘m not sure if it was time or the public/private aspect but it was long ago history in either case and so so different. I still think about it. 5y

#riotgrams #day28 - #bookstore

Really need to visit this place more regularly. There are other stores closer, but this easily has the best selection and ambience. If you're ever in Greenville SC, make the time to seek it out.
