Madison's Gift: Five Partnerships That Built America, by David O. Stewart

Stuck in my American Revolution phase I turned to this one for two reasons.  First, I didn't know much about Madison,and Second, it was read by Grover Gardner.  At this point I've probably heard more words spoken by Gardner than I have my wife of 18 years...

Really enjoyed the book.

This is my book club book selection so I have it in two formats.  Listened to some of it (first half) and then read the second half.  Really enjoyed this one, will likely read the entire thing again before book club.
