Anyone know of any good biographies? There the kind of books I enjoy the most.

I read James Madison and the Making of America (http://www.amazon.com/James-Madison-Making-America-Gutzman/dp/0312625006) recently. It takes a nuanced look at Madison. It also covers the Philadelphia Convention and the ratification process in detail. Good Stuff.

I second this recommendation. I've read through the first few chapters, so far the book is excellent.
