That list alone converted me from a sort of right leaning indifference to a full on conservative. It’s done that for a number of people I’ve shown it to.
A friend was visiting a few months ago when I mentioned the book. They asked to borrow it. They now own a copy.
It’s an important read. Another thing I like about the book is that when Skousen wrote it he had the school student in mind. He wanted to pen this book in a way that it didn’t read like a textbook. He wanted it to be a relatively easy read for students, and he has accomplished that.
