Good narrative non-fiction has many characteristics of fiction--
tells a good story

sets a scene
creates suspense
is written in an engaging style
I liked the included list of topics of narrative nonfiction:
biographies
memoirs
history
contemporary social/issues
science
essays
sports
travel
food
crime
faith
overcoming adversity
medical
political (really had trouble thinking of an example of this one till Melissa suggested Game Change)
