I’m thinking of an interleaved reading of the Federalist Papers and Anti-Federalist Papers in chronological order.

Whew! I thought Atlas Shrugged was a big undertaking!

BTW, I vote for once a week. Saturday works well.

I tried the federalist papers years ago here, it was a big dud. We all are here because we understand conservatism, and didn't need to discuss it in depth.

With the success of this thread, how about "Rules for Radicals"? We need to know the enemy, and digging into their playbook might be wildly successful.

Read your profile, what do/did you play? I’m a retired cellist.

I vote for “The Road to Serfdom”. Only because that is the next one on my list...

Please add me to your ping list. Thanks.

Should you not be aware, these are included in chronological order, along with other letters, papers and documents, in Library of America's two volume set Debate on the Constitution.

Also, when I did a Google search I found a LOA page, http://www.loa.org/debate/ , with a teaser offer for this set and a 1600 page collection of ThJ's papers &c. IMHO, this is a great offer even if we never have any organized discussion of these volumes here.
