It's been a busy summer, and I'm long overdue for sharing our adventures with you. I hope that you, too, have been sharing some quality time racking up new experiences with your family.

As you wait for recaps, tips and lessons learned from our journeys to Maine, the beach, New York City -- and more! -- I wanted to share with you a collection that I started of some of our very favorite books on historical subjects. It's a list that will continue to grow as we discover additional titles that stand up to repeated readings and can spark interesting conversations at bedtime.

Check out Curious Posterity's Recommended Reading List. If you are looking for something related to a specific event or individual, ask away -- and please share if you come across something spectacular!.
