The Founder's Almanac

This was an interesting book for me to read. It actually is more like a collection of writing. Several essays are written about prominent founders including George Washington, and Ben Franklin, Alexander Hamilton and such. It was cool to find out some previously unknown information. My favorite part of the book was quotes from the founders on various subjects. You can look up subjects from religion and marriage, to democracy, republics and the free market and find a great quote from a well known founder. Also included are the Declaration of Independence, The Constitution and Washington's Farewell Address. It's a good book to have on hand as a resource.
