All the King's Men, by Robert Penn Warren, is the Great American Novel.
It's fiction, but topical insight on recent politics and human nature.
thanks yall...looking for something to read just a teeny bit lighter than the Holy Bible right now..lol I do have a copy under my bed and read parts at random occasionally. I have read "The Road to Serfdom" Hayek and Friedman are awesome guys. I'd really like something released in the past 5 years or so...somewhat up to date with the issues in politics..Any other suggestions?
