      There are lots of selections. There definitely won't be any complaints in that department! Question is, which one first? Thanks for watching. Have a great weekend.

    Got some great pick-ups here, Bill! I wish we had better used bookstores out here...or even just a couple. That's probably why I have to buy bargain books online...the thrift stores out here have too many crappy, mainstream books.

      Thanks Peg! I was excited with my finds. I am really excited about this weeks finds. I will try to get a video up soon. I found a lot of great Civil War selections. I think you will like what I found. Thanks for watching. Have a great weekend.

    Out of One, Many was one I brought up that I was looking forward to. Hope you like that one. Founding Myths also looks fun. Great pickups overall and enjoy your reading Bill!

    Not only was childbirth dangerous, I think I once read that ancient Roman women had to average 5 point something births just to maintain the population. Ugh. Human biology is scary and disgusting enough in MODERN conditions. 😁
    Looks like some nice acquisitions. I haven't hauled anything new in a while, but I already have plenty to read. Think I'm gonna enjoy some horror for Horror Mayhem; I'm kind of in the mood for some reason. Thanks for the video, and have a good one!

      Hey Bryan! Thanks for stopping by. You are very correct, childbirth is scary! I sat in on both of my children's births and ... wow! My kids in class are always amazed when we talk about life without modern medicine. Friday we talked about what musket balls could do and why so many people got amputations. They had no clue. Thanks for watching. Have a great night.

    Pretty nice selection of books. Do the girl students avoid reading too, or just the boys? What do the girls like to read? Have a great week!

      A lot of the girls like to read. Some of the boys like reading, too. I see them reading things like Harry Potter, Percy Jackson and the Olympians ... stuff like that is popular right now. The boys like the sports books by Green, Jeter, Lupica, etc. There are lots of others. I try to read some of it myself just so that I can have bookish conversations with them. Thanks for watching. Have a great week.
