Just got this. A handy read. 'The Intellectual Devotional, American History':
from the back cover blurb.

Modeled after those bedside books of prayer and contemplation that millions turn to for daily spiritual guidance and growth, the national bestseller The Intellectual Devotional - offering secular wisdom and cerebral nourishment - drew a year's worth of readings from seven different fields of knowledge.

In this follow up volume, David S. Kidder and Noah D. Oppenheim have turned to the rich legacy of American history.

1. Noah is a friend of Chris Matthews.
That said, this is a handy book. We kept it in the bathroom during the sophomore year my nephew was in high school. He read part of it every day and really, truly appreciated it.

2. I could see it as a bathroom book.

3. This is focused on American History, same format, I guess. One of those
good thumbnails you can pick up and open a page to read. Has follow up citations for more info.

Good format for a short attention span world.
