Little bit of a couple of things. I can't just read one book at a time for whatever reason.
I'm reading discord's book club book, Two Faces of American Freedom by Aziz Rana alongside The Creation of the American Republic, 1776-1787 by Gordon Wood for a double shot of American republicanism. So far it seems like Rana nearly makes Wood obsolete, but The Creation is a classic in the field that I'm seriously thinking about delving into so I gotta get through it.
I'm also getting through Marx's Civil War in France and 18 Brumaire, which inspired me to finally get through Furet's history of Revolutionary France 1770-1880. It's slow going on all fronts, since there are so many, but it is going.
