We have about 700 or so books which we want to summarize. The next ten which we need summaries for are:
Inventing Freedom, How the English-Speaking Peoples Made the Modern World, by Daniel Hannan
American Nations, A History of The Eleven Rival Regional Cultures of North America, by Colin Woodard
Signing Their Lives Away, The Fame and Misfortune of the Men Who Signed the Declaration of Independence, by Denise Kurnan and Joseph D’Agnese
Signing Their Rights Away, The Fame and Misfortune of the Men Who Signed the United States Constitution, by Denise Kurnan and Joseph D’Agnese
A Fine Mess, A Global Quest for a Simpler, Fairer, and more Efficient Tax System, by T. R. Reid
For Good and Evil, The Impact of Taxes on the Course of Civilization, Second Edition, by Charles Adams
Taxing Ourselves, A Citizen’s Guide to the Debate over Taxes, by Joel Slemrod and Jon Bakija
Federal Taxation in America, A History, by E. Elliot Brownlee
Democracy for Realists, Why Elections do not Produce Responsive Government, by Christopher H. Achen and Larry M. Bartels
Rights of Man, by Thomas Paine
Note: Some of the above books we have read (and love) and some we haven’t read, but they look interesting. We don’t know if we agree with those, and we don’t know if you will agree with them, either. We simply think their data and their ideas should be made more accessible to more people, so we can talk about those ideas with our friends.
Come on board.
