24. His Excellency
The recent George Washington book by whatshisname.

I don't know why nobody is making US history epics right now. They would really do well in theaters. I would (and probably should) write the screenplay which would take place for on GW's triumphant parade through the states, and then fill it with flashbacks about his history.

Also, after last week's "This American Life", I can invision a great movie about Lafayette.

Infuse these things with reality and true history and they'll appeal to both the mindless nationalists and the true historians.
