The Jack Miller Center wants to congratulate the members of our JMC network who have published a book length manuscript in the last calendar year. Few accomplishments are as meaningful and lasting for authors, and those who read them.

The list also is a demonstration of the broad intellectual interests of our network. Although many directly address America’s Founding and History, the list includes subjects and authors that compose the intellectual, historical, and political resources the American Founders drew upon as well as current events that are of interest to all of us.
