What we’re about
Welcome to The Drunken Historians Society!
Do you love history, biographies, and raising a glass to the past? Then this is the perfect book club for you. We’re a group of history enthusiasts in Phoenix who dive into the lives of historical figures, explore pivotal moments in history, and enjoy lively discussions over drinks.
Each month, we choose a biography or history book to read. Whether it's about a famous leader, an unsung hero, or a fascinating event, we meet up in a relaxed setting—usually at a local bar or pub—to discuss the book, share insights, and enjoy drinks.
What to expect:
Thought-provoking discussions on history, culture, and the lives of intriguing figures.
A fun, friendly atmosphere where history lovers of all backgrounds can connect.
Great company, good drinks, and a new book every month!
Who should join: Anyone who loves a good story, historical or biographical books, and engaging conversation with a drink in hand. Whether you’re a casual reader or a history buff, everyone’s welcome.
Join The Drunken Historians Society, and let’s make history while enjoying our favorite beverages!

Join us as we delve into the electrifying mind of one of history's most brilliant and eccentric inventors. Written in 1919, My Inventions is Tesla's own firsthand account of his extraordinary life—from his childhood visions in Serbia to his groundbreaking work with alternating current, wireless transmission, and innovations that shaped the modern world.
