Charlatan: America's Most Dangerous Huckster, the Man Who Pursued Him, and the Age of Flimflam | 
I am posting one book per day from my extensive to-be-read collection. I will provide no description and no reason for wanting to read it. I just do. Some will be old, and some will be new. Don‘t judge me - I have a lot of books. Join in if you want!

Thought I would read this and see if this person is America's most dangerous huckster. Or see if it is someone different, say a certain someone with orange hair.
While I'm talking about podcasts: a recent episode of Reply All sent me running to the library in search of this gem. It has everything you want in a nonfiction book: plot, intrigue, unforgettable characters, goat testicles (seriously...). And it describes a charlatan using a new communication technology to steamroll his opponents, which in no way relates to any current events. Highly recommend this book so far.
Just a little payday shopping at half price books with @Kat_Reads all this plus one 📚 for Kat, for under $40.
#FunFridayPhotoDay I love to read about witches, Sharks, Native Americans, micro histories, diseases, westerns, and genetics! @Liberty
pickOrganizing nonfic shelves, which makes this a good time to suggest you read CHARLATAN. One of the funniest, most brilliant nonfiction stories. I adored it. Read if you haven't.
