Book Rec from Eric
The Better Angels of Our Nature by Steven Pinker
Eric says: “In The Better Angels of Our Nature, Steven Pinker outlines the history and decline of human violence from the ancient to the modern world. He makes a convincing case by presenting well-researched data, graphs, charts, and statistics in a pleasing narrative style peppered tension-breaking humor. This book is an excellent examination of how, despite what the headlines and cable news outlets would have you believe, we are currently living in the safest, least violent time in human history.”

Book Rec from Earl
The Sacketts Series by Louis L’amour
Earl says: “I would like to recommend the Sacketts Series of books by Louis L’amour. The books are historical fiction and tell the tale of a family and how they became though the years. There’s lots of action and plot turns in the stories. The main theme is the Sackett family always sticks together.
There’s at least 18 books in the series you will have plenty to enjoy.”
