The 50 Best Nonfiction Books of the Past 25 Years - Page 2

Slate's list of the definitive nonfiction books written in English in the past quarter-century includes beautifully written memoirs but also books of reportage, collections of essays, travelogues, works of cultural criticism, passionate arguments, even a compendium of household tips. What they all share is a commitment to "mostly truth" and the belief that digging deep to find a real story—whether it's located in your memory, on dusty archive shelves, in Russian literature, in a slum in Mumbai—is a task worth undertaking.
