Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
The Federalist papers -- 85 essays written by Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, and James Madison in support of the adoption of the U.S. Constitution -- began appearing in New York newspapers beginning in the autumn of 1787. And though controversy still swirls around authorship of certain individual essays, and the impact the papers had on the public opinion of the time remains open to debate, it's clear that the dramatic impact on global civilization of these spirited defenses of the nation's founding document cannot be exaggerated. As masterful examinations of the fundamental principals of the U.S. system of government, they are unrivaled -- as works of political philosophy, they have moved and influenced peoples and nations around the world in their battles toward freedom and democracy. This edition also includes The Articles of Confederation of the United States, and The Declaration of Independence. ALEXANDER HAMILTON (1757-1804), JOHN JAY (1745-1829), and JAMES MADISON (1751-1836) are among the most revered of America's Founding Fathers, men whose animated advocacy of the new nation continues to reverberate in political thought today.

If you think you understand American constitutions rights and thought, you can't be sure unless this book is in your reading (and there are others, of course). Read this (I have the soft-bound version). Learn how little of the constitution is actually practiced today. Don't be too surprised when you find out that, when defined by the thoughts in this book, we no longer follow our constitution except for a few logistical practices, like trial by jury. In fact, read the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights, and learn how our nation no longer functions by these documents in the final analysis. We no longer live in a Republic except by name.

The book is prophetic for our day.
This is a must-read.
It will open your eyes to what is happening around us.
We all must become aware of what people are doing to control us and take away our freedoms.
