Thomas E. Woods

About

I earned my master's, M.Phil., and Ph.D. degrees in history from Columbia University, after receiving my bachelor's degree from Harvard. Over the years, I have penned numerous books which include but not limited to "The Church Confronts Modernity" (published by Columbia University Press) and two New York Times bestsellers titled, "Meltdown: A Free-Market Look at Why the Stock Market Collapsed, the Economy Tanked, and Government Bailouts Will Make Things Worse", and "The Politically Incorrect Guide to American History".

My two most recent publications are "Rollback: Repealing Big Government Before the Coming Fiscal Collapse" and "Nullification: How to Resist Federal Tyranny in the 21st Century".

Currently, I reside in Topeka, Kansas with my wife and our four young daughters. You can find a more comprehensive version of my biography at www.TomWoods.com/about. In addition to this webpage, my upcoming appearances, along with abundant free audio, video, and articles, can also be accessed here.
