Description
Considered the United States' greatest contribution to the "canon" of western political theory, "The Federalist" is a series of 85 essays first published in 1787 and 1788 supporting the ratification of the Constitution. In this new edition, Jack Rakove presents the most crucial and frequently studied "Federalist" essays with an introduction to contemporary scholarly thinking about the Constitution and the role these essays played in its adoption.
