Reply to comment by the_rigged_rogue in Looking for a good history book about Pennsylvania. by RNDiva

I am not to interested in sports either and all your recommendations sound great. On a side note we have toyed Gettysburg and that is just so horrific. Not only for the soldiers but for the people living in the area.

Yeah, totally understandable. If you aren't into the tactical side of things with not just Gettysburg, but the whole US Civil War, that kinda just leaves you with the cultural parts which as interesting as it is as far as how far we've come medical-wise, it's still terrifying to constantly read about.

There is a book series, of which I only have one, called Pennsylvania Fireside Tales, by Jeffrey Frazier. Not a thick book. Interesting reading.
