Book recommendation for long winter nights

Empire of liberty : a history of the early Republic, 1789-1815 by Gordon S. Wood

Such a great book! Awesome indeed! Huge, too - about 700 pages. Perfect size for long winter evenings by the fire.
Makes you realize how very little you knew about those mysterious years immediately (sort of) after George Washington was elected the first U.S. president.
It confirms our view that Washington was this country's best, most honorable president EVER.
