Reception
In a review of the book, historian Thomas Woods wrote:
The Tea Party Goes to Washington . . . is a much bolder book than Rand skeptics would have expected, and it is also a strategically clever book . . . To be sure, Rand’s anecdotes from the campaign trail and from his days as a boy growing up in the Paul household are well executed and engaging, rather than cloying and phony as in so many political books. More importantly, Senator Paul is willing to stake out positions—on the Patriot Act, the U.S. Constitution, the federal budget, Austrian economics, and so on—that are not exactly standard fare for a man in his position.
