A River of Doubt
Destiny of the Republic
Two biographies written by Candice Millard about Teddy Roosevelt and James A. Garfield respectively. They are both two of the best books I have ever read. Destiny of the Republic gave me so much respect for Garfield and after reading the book I am sure he would have been one of the greats if he wasn’t assassinated.
King Leopold’s Ghost is also one of the best books I’ve ever read.

Titan: The Life of John D. Rockefeller by Ron Chernow
Lenin: The Man, The Dictator and The Master Of Terror by Victor Sebastyan
I really enjoyed both of these biographies and learned a lot about how their eras shaped each man’s life.
