The Federalist Papers (Signet Classics)

This book shows how far we have drifted into waters feared and avoided by our founding fathers. It shows how we have desecrated our constitution and are being led away from the founding principals by liberal government and judiciary.

THIS BOOK SHOULD BE A MUST READ - ALONG WITH THE CONSTITUTION - AND TESTS ON BOTH IN ALL FOUR GRADES OF HIGH SSHOOL!! SO MANY TAKE OUR COUNTRY'S BEGINNING FOR GRANTED, AND IT IS BECOMEING MORE APPARENT EVERY DAY. EVEN
HUSSEIN OBAMA SHOULD READ THIS!

this book gives the best insight into our founding fathers first writings on changing the minds of colonialist to make that bold step into this wounderful democractic republic we live in today.A must have for your consrvative library.
This book is a great read and a great reference book to the pre constitution.

The U. S. Constitution is a miraculous document. Unfortunately, it's not required reading.
First, read the Declaration and then the Constitution of the United States. When you have completed these tasks, read "The Federalist Papers". Some might think the Constitution is a simple document that everyone agreed upon. It wasn't. It took a lot of work to get it written and even more to get it signed.
There was much debate surrounding it. And when it looked like it was "losing ground", James Madison, with the help of Alexander Hamilton and John Jay, wrote letters in local papers under pseudonames. These letters were later compiled into what we now call, "The Federalist Papers". They help to understand the Constitution and to really appreciate what we have in it.

This is a must if you are interested in US history. But I would place ahead of this, the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, various writings of Thomas Jefferson, etc.
