I acquired James Billington's Fire in the Minds of Men many years ago.  It is a wonderful book on the nature of revolution--especially in the modern era.  For folks wanting to understand the revolutionary nature of our times, it is a great read.  And if one wants to grasp the way in which the US is in a sense in a state of permanent revolution, it is very helfpful.  Here is a helpful essay by Billington over at TAC.
