MADISON WAS THE BEST JOURNALIST OF THE 18th CENTURY
He told us exactly what happened. No editorializing. No Political correctness. Lots of detail. Pure Honesty. We get to see what the Constitution was meant to be from the point of view of the founders themselves. Before you read any popular media work on the Consitiution, Read this. You'll need to think a little, but well worth it. --George Stancliffe

This is unfortunate, for this volume stands as one of the most important published sources on Georgia troops in the Army of Northern Virginia. Included in Heroes and Martyrs are eighteen detailed histories of infantry, cavalry, and artillery units, most of ...

James Madison Speaks for Himself
The American Founders are receiving a great deal of merited attention in popular histories such as "John Adams" and "The Founding Brothers." These books have the merits of readability and accesibility -- of providing knowledge and historical context of the early days of our country in a relatively short but informed compass. The Library of America's series of writings by America's Founders -- ...

They should be teaching this in our public schools.This defines who we are and what the consequences are if not adopted (Which they were. Thank God.)We need a rebirth of patriotism and this is a good start.

Thought Provoking - Citizens/Historians, this is a MUST!
A very pleasant surprise, indeed! I am a normal, working class citizen and was given this book as a gift. My initial reaction was, "I will get to this when I can", but after turning the first 9 pages, I could not put it down! Dr. Saxey's goal is the same as the original authors; his intent is to assist every voter in reading and understanding the Constitution, and he accomplishes that goal in ...

Publius wrote a winner
It simply does not get better than this. Publius (Hamilton, Jay, Madison) wrote these essays to sell the ratification of the Constitution. They are still reference material for the US Supreme Court. Read and take these to heart if you wish to understand our government and Constitution.

Fascinating...For the Right Person
You don't need to be told that the Federalist Papers are not for everyone, but for a niche audience of which I happen to be a member. And so, the qualifications: you need to have a pretty fluent command of the English language, and not just modern usage but also more archaic structure and vocabulary; you have to have a good grasp of history, at least a rough outline of it solidly in mind; you ...

This is not a review, simply a correction of your listing of this book--it is not by Alexander Hamilton, it is by Hamilton and James Madison, being an exchange of arguments between them.
