The Sovereign States

I mentioned in this post James J. Kilpatrick’s The Sovereign States: Notes of a Citizen of Virginia (Chicago: Henry Regnery Company, 1957), which I purchased on Tom DiLorenzo’s strong recommendation. I’m half-way through it right now and … wow. What an amazing book. Beautifully written and coherently and passionately argued. And very persuasive, and sound. Just take a look at this brief excerpt on the Kentucky and Virginia Resolves, and the federal judiciary. I guess Sandefur would say this guy humiliates himself–ha!

I’ve also been told that New Views of the Constitution of the United States, by John Taylor of Caroline, is very good (see reviews by Monty Rainey and National Review. Yet another on my reading list.
