NPI: The Reading List

Knowledge is power.

This old (and perhaps new) adage is an important phrase to keep in mind in the political society we live in today. Many Americans are not well-informed and are easily bought by rhetoric and sound bites from the Administration.

If you're reading this blog, congratulate yourself. Whether you be conservative or liberal (or even libertarian) you are more politically informed and involved then the average American.

But why not take it a step further? NPI has put together a Reading List of a few dozen "essential" reads, grouped by categories. Pick a few or read 'em all. Whatever you choose from this list, you're bound to gain truth and valuable insight from.

If you read just one book from this list, though - pick the Republican Noise Machine, by David Brock, the book Robert Kennedy Jr. called, "the most important book of the past ten years and mandatory reading for all who want to understand American politics and history." (Find out more about the book here).
