How to Hide an Empire: A History of the Greater United States (Daniel Immerwahr)

Owners of a 70+ father rise UP…looking for birthday gift recs for my dad who “doesn’t want anything and doesn’t need anything” (🤪). Like a classic dad, he loves world history, loves a comfortable chair, LL BEAN, slippers, birding, and fixing things. He lives in Maine and loves type 2 fun, but not THAT much because he’s (his words) “getting old”. He’s about to go on a road trip out west in US with brother…any ideas for a nice birthday gift or road trip gift? 🤟

I’ve given this to many a dad and they always seem excited to discuss it after.
