Why do some readers like biographies?

English

Biographies are "true to life." 
People read them to find out how individuals have shaped the way we think or act or enjoy sports or influenced us greatly. Biographies are interesting to read whether you are interested in Mickey Mantle, Babe Ruth, Wayne Gretzky or Joseph Stalin. All of these people and so many others have shaped the way we look at the world.

Biographies represent people who have done things -- even small things.

Some biographies are of people who shaped the way we think. I'm thinking of someone like Dwight Eisenhower who shaped the way Americans look at war and defense and big industry.

Some like Paul or Jesus shape the way we govern moral behavior. 

Some like Hitler or Stalin should lead us to utter "never again."

Well, mostly, some readers like biographies because it's they're style of reading.  For example, most readers like chapter books, or graphic novals.  But biographies usually tell about that person, or something they did that made a huge change in life.  And they might also inspire them, to keep reading, or on their quote.

So, some readers like biographies because they might like learning about other's lifestyle, and to inspire.

Consider Tim O’Brien’s story "Ambush." What differences do you see between how O’Brien dealt with killing an enemy soldier in th
Firlakuza [10]
<span> "Ambush," O’Brien describes killing a man while serving in war. He had no intention of killing him—he reacted without thinking. O’Brien feels guilty about having killed another human being, even though his fellow soldier tries to soothe him with the logic that the man would have been killed eventually anyway. However, trying to justify having killed someone, O’Brien explains that his training as a soldier prompted him to act involuntarily when he lobbed the grenade upon spotting an enemy soldier. Twenty years later, long after the war has ended, O’Brien is unable to admit to his daughter, Kathleen, that he has killed another person. He feels guilt and denial about having killed a man, and experiences recurrent flashbacks and visions. Through his story, O’Brien conveys that a soldier is a changed person after he has witnessed such a war, and those who have not been in a war cannot begin to understand the emotional turmoil that soldiers go through.</span>

I’ve never heard of such a saying before, but using context clues one could gather that it has something to do with human greed and the desire for wealth, and how it can twist your morals without you realizing it.
