    "Democracy in Chains"
    Just started it but so far it's a page-turner

      "The American Heritage History of The Law In America" by Bernard Schwartz (1974)

      And as soon as I see my friend, which should be in the next week or so, I'll be reading her new book, "Propaganda Girls."

      Please give Lisa a hug from me. She is amazing.

        "Original Intent and the Framer's Constitution" by Leonard W. Levy. I read about half of it some years back. Now I'm re-reading it and finishing it. Quite enjoying it.

          Still waiting for my library to supply the Captain Cook book...
          Reading these:

          20250511_063652.jpg

          The Dorothy Wordsworth (bought) is a keeper; after a brief interesting historical introduction, her 225 year old diary is immediate and lyrical - after all she was her brothers inspiration, muse and recorder. And has artwork throughout.

          Censoring Victoria is quite academic (library book borrowed 9 times in 11 years).
          30 pages in, I may skip through to the end.

            I just read Conclave by Robert Harris. That was a fun read. Helped me imagine what went on recently at the Vatican.

                  I have never read any of Ursula K. Le Guin, so I'm starting the Left Hand of Darkness.

                  Crazy economist who likes to write about higher education.

                      On Lying and Politics by Hannah Arendt https://app.thestorygraph.com/books/1a83999a-ad81-4709-a546-8790280e444d

                      I started out as a poli sci major but I think I'm out of practice. Short book, long read.
