50 states of mind
The United States is a union of 50 states. Let's "book around the states" and find at least one excellent book for each state of the union. The book should help us learn something ABOUT that state and not just be one written by somebody who lives there.
NOTE: To see what books have been suggested for each state, click on the name of any state (or DC) in the list of labels; all posts about that state will come up.
