1:* Liberty’s First Crisis: Adams, Jefferson, and the Misfits Who Saved Free Speech* by Charles Slack
2: Rothstein: the Life, Times and Murder of the Man Who Fixed the 1919 World Series, by David Pietrusza
3: The Pyrates by George MacDonald Fraser
4: Colonel Roosevelt by Edmund Morris
The last in his trilogy about Theodore Roosevelt, from his leaving the White House to his death. Big, detailed, but written with a light touch and very engrossing.
