About this Item

Title

  • Jeffrey Rosen and Carlos Lozada: Politicians on the Page

Summary

  • What our leaders wrote and read may be more revealing than they know, according to these two nonfiction books. "The Washington Book" by Carlos Lozada makes a case for the oft-derided modern political memoir. Jeffrey Rosen's "The Pursuit of Happiness" examines how classical philosophy influenced the founders and shaped the nation's values. The two authors discussed their books with Marianna Sotomayor at the 2024 Library of Congress National Book Festival in Washington, D.C.
