Conservatarian / Neo-Libertarian Reading List (30 books)

This is a list of books that serve as the foundation for my political beliefs.
I would best describe myself as a "Conservatarian", meaning that I side with conservatives on some issues and libertarians on others.
A more accurate description would be "Neo-Libertarian", meaning that I support individual liberties, free-market capitalism, and an interventionist foreign policy.
