The Chucksphere

I’ve been doing a lot of reading these days about our Founding Fathers and the ideological origins of this country. Rather than take it on the words of political blowhards, read about it yourselves in:

Edmund Morgan. The Birth of the Republic.

Bernard Bailyn. The Ideological Origins of the American Revolution.

Pauline Maier. From Resistance to Revolution.

Michael Kammen. The Origins of the American Constitution.

Gordon Wood. Creation of the American Rupublic.

I had to read these for my class on the American Revolution. I’m reading them “lately” because I didn’t actually finish all of them when they were assigned.
