No, we've recently seen all of these. I'm tempted to comment on Reno, but I won't.

Not too cool. I figured it was Astronaut Farmer from the clues you gave as to correct answers. Then eliminated wrong answers til I was left with either Memoirs or What the Bleep.
Ok.
Right now I am reading a book about which obscure historical figure and which obscure historical figure have I not read a book about?
1. Francis Marion
2. Elizabeth Blackwell
3. Jane Addams
4. Robert Green Ingersoll
5. John Brown

Neither of these two guesses are correct.
Which means one of the two statements Miner made in his first guess is a correct statement.

That is the correct answer.
I am currently reading about Abolitionist John Brown who raided the federal arsenal at Harper's Ferry Virginia in 1859 in the hopes of starting a slave insurrection. I have reached the part about the raid right now.
I have never read about Jane Addams who ounded Hull House in Chicago.
Francis Marion, the Swamp Fox of the American Revolution was one of the first books I read and got me interested in history.
I read about Elizabeth Blackwell, the first woman to graduate from medical school in the US, when I was a teenager.
And I read about Robert Green Ingersoll more recently. The Great Agnostic, Mr. Ingersoll campaigned for many politicians and presidents sought his advice. A reknown orator, his open agnosticism kept him from political office.
Over to you Dedman.

The only character in all of literature who has been described as "badnass" while using the phrase "vile miscreant."
