Can I learn math by reading library books on the history of math?

I’ve hit a wall in learning high school math and I’ve resorted to reading library books on math history as a hobby. I read the 2002 book Math Stuff by Theoni Pappas in one day. The local library has ten books on math and I wonder if it would help raise my grade twelve math grades if I read them all. Also why don’t public libraries have up to date textbooks on science and math?
