Book Review: Great gift idea for the intellectual in your life!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

I have been reading the first in the series which focuses on 7 distinct subject issues each week. This helps not get you stuck in subject matter for too long. The addtional facts are also handy, as they provide further insight into the subjust from another angle. I bought this book for a family member because I know they are an intellectual like myself!!!!

Summary of The Intellectual Devotional: American History: Revive Your Mind, Complete Your Education, and Converse Confidently about Our Nation's Past

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, authors David S. Kidder and Noah D. Oppenheim have turned to the rich legacy of American history for their selections. From Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin to Martin Luther King Jr., from the Federalist Papers to Watergate, the giant figures, cultural touchstones, and pivotal events in our national heritage provide a bountiful source of reflection and education that will refresh knowledge, revitalize the mind, and open new horizons of intellectual discovery.
