Empire of Liberty: A History of the Early Republic, 1789-1815

By Gordon S. Wood (BUY)
I have just started my review copy of this book - so far, so good. Wood’s books are all very good reads to me.

The Big Burn: Teddy Roosevelt and the Fire that Saved America

By Timothy Egan (BUY)
I have an advance copy of this book. I will post a review soon, but here’s the short version: It is awesome!

The American Civil War: A Military History

By John Keegan (BUY)
John Keegan is a great military historian. In some of his previous works, I found his writing went in off on odd tangents, but it was always interesting. I look forward to reading this British historian’s view on the American Civil War.
