I'll be driving a bunch. I'd rather not pay more than $50. I looked at the book list in the sidebar but it seemed mostly geared toward specific subjects.

Bonus points if the author/reader is engaging and/or funny. My favourite popular history author so far has been the Swedish https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herman_Lindqvist - who is apparently no stranger to controversy, but writes in a very accessible and humourous way.

Thank you.
