Great Reasons to Read History Books

Odds are when browsing through a bookstore you’re more inclined to peruse the fiction shelves than you are to wade through the history section. That said, history books have so much to offer, and here are three great reasons why you might want to read them.


Up your trivia knowledge. Have you ever sat through trivia night at the bar completely stumped by the questions and feeling like you’re not contributing anything to the team? We have too... Many, many times. Worry not! Reading history books will fill your mind with all kinds of interesting information, and odds are next time trivia night rolls around you’ll be better prepared than you ever thought you could be!


Tell better stories. Who knows, maybe your life is one of action and excitement and you’ll never run out of stories to tell? For the rest of us, however, we’re often short on ideas when it comes to making conversation at a party. History books to the rescue! The world is an interesting place, after all, and what better way to entertain your audience than to tell a tale from the pages of history.


Better round out your knowledge. When it comes right down to it, history books have a whole lot of knowledge to share. You may not ever have aspirations of competing on Jeopardy, but you never know when a little bit of extra knowledge (not to mention the wisdom gained from it) might come in handy. So go ahead, pick up that history book and get started on expanding your mind!
