Book: Benjamin Franklin, An American Life by Walter Isaacson
Isaacson gives what seems to be a realistic view of the life and legend of this inventor, writer, and statesman.
A great read about an extremely important man in the history of the United States. There haven't been many, if any, like Franklin. Read this and you'll understand why the legend continues.

Book: The Good Life by Charles Colson
Have you ever wondered how you got to the point of allowing something to gradually come into your life? Or how you got this point in your life?
The word is "tollerance."
Colson describes how he concluded his rise to the White House and then the descent to a jail cell.
A very telling story that needs to be struggled through in all our lives.
Update: 12/2008 - four years after reading this book, I regularly refer to it in discussions. Tolerance is alive and well in our lives and it can tear us down; blind spots!
