I have quite a bit of non-fiction in my library, but most has been bought from Kobo since I could get it for much much less than Amazon ($8-$20 on Amazon, $1-$5 on Kobo with codes). Most of my Amazon purchases are fiction and if I had to guess at an average I'd say it's about $2-$4.
Since you have similar choices in some respects to me, if you are a US resident and have Prime, you may be interested in borrowing FREE Volumes 1 to 3 of Churchill's "A History of the English Speaking Peoples" here:

I'm currently in Volume 3 of the William Manchester 3 volume biography of Churchill ranging in price from $ 11 to $ 15 available here:
