What are you reading now!!

[zadrock]

Why oh WHY are you asking me this now?

Sigh...

"Audacity of Hope" -- Barack Obama



No, I'm not kidding. I've finally decided to be better informed about everyone else's favorite candidate.

OK, before I lose my street cred, there are a few other books I'm in the middle of:
The Roosevelt Myth - John Flynn
Money, Bank Credit, and Economic Cycles - Jesus Huerta de Soto (an amazing work - it's supposed to be a modern version of von Mises' The Theory of Money and Credit)
A Foreign Policy of Freedom - Ron Paul

Just finished:
How Capitalism Saved America - Thomas DiLorenzo
Liberal Fascism - Jonah Goldberg

On my to do list:
Looking Backward - Edward Bellamy (a novel about a socialist utopia, written by the cousin of Francis Bellamy, author of the Pledge of Allegiance)
As We Go Marching - John Flynn
The Mystery of Capital - Hernando de Soto
America's Great Depression - Murray Rothbard
and I do have Obama's other book which I may get to eventually.

In the distant future:
Capitalism - George Reisman

FYI, I just got a Kindle from Amazon. It will get you hooked on reading again, in case you ever gave it up. And since you can download pdf's from mises.org for free and send them to your kindle, it pays for itself pretty quickly (currently $360)

Just finished this, was very good. Answered many questions I've had over the years about ole Churchill.


Just started Hyack's Road to Serfdom. It's better than i thought it would be. I was a bit put off by the idea of an Austrian writing in English about economic theory during the second world war.... but its very readable.

I'm really liking it. Sort of hard to grasp all the characters coming at you so fast, but I'm getting the picture. This isn't the history I was taught in school.

I just finished
The Real Lincoln
Swimming Against the Current

On tap
The Great Depression by Robbins
The Case Against the Fed by Rothbard
