Ye Olde Book Shelf

I recently finished two more books off the extensive reading list. First was Susan Jacoby's Freethinkers, which, as the subtitle clearly states, is a history of American secularism (I can think of a few regular commentators who might do well to read this). It is an interesting and informative book, but at times is hard slogging.

The other book I just finished was His Excellency, by Joseph J. Ellis. This book is an easy to read, 275 page biography of George Washington, from his early days as a Colonial militial officer to his final days at Mt. Vernon. Quite good!
