Looking for any good book with one of these:
1. History- Jewish or non Jewish
2. Interesting facts
3. Humor
4. Any other interesting subject you can think of...
Doesn't have to be Jewish, but should be clean.
Thank you!

Did you ever read any of Jane Austen's novels? She's my favorite Hf author, little heavy on the romance side but she's good!

"Quackery: A Brief History of the Worst Ways to Cure Everything" had its moments of humor. Not for the squeamish.

One of the funniest books I've ever read is a memoir/autobiography by Richard Feynman, a physicist who was involved in the Manhattan Project that built the first atomic bomb. If he hadn't been a brilliant scientist, he would've made a hilarious comedian.

Endurance by Alfred Lansing. Fascinating fascinating book about Shackleton's voyage to Antarctica at the turn of the 20th century. It helps if you're into natural history and exploration.
