Have you read "Founding Brothers" by James Ellis. A fascinating study on how the Constitution and our country came to be.

Haven't read that one. I tend to drift towards copies or compilations of the original letters, essays, etc.. While an author's interpretation of what happened can be quite interesting, I have found that I appreciate the Framers more when I can read something like the exchange of letters between Madison and Jefferson on the Constitution.

1800s writing style is a small barrier at first, but once that's passed, it's a real joy.

I've got to run get my lotto ticket before the winning one is sold. See you all tomorrow.
