She is 22 and loves learning about the history she was not taught in school. She blows me away all the time with the things she knows and is intrested in (She's huge into the Titanic for some reason) Anyways, she came to me and asked what books she could read. I told her OLD ONES. Then she asked some things about the Holocaust. I asked what she learned in school, she said they never covered it in history class. Should I be scouring ebay or other second hand sites? Or is there a place i can buy old, retired textbooks? Of course all book recommendations are welcome. Maybe a textbook is not the most thrilling read. Thanks for any suggestions.

My wife recently went to a rather large used bookstore, and she was amazed at all the old text books and history books available. See if you can find one in you city to browse. If not, you can go on line and check out 'old used books' and you should find a good selection. Sometimes the public library has old text and history books for checking out. Our library had a recent book sale and sold many of the old history books.
