An interesting summary and interpretation of the Constitutional Convention that lead to the Constitution. This book was originally written and published in 1913.

Of special note is the various compromises between the various States in formulating the Constitution; the appendix which provides the Articles of Confederation, the Virginia Plan, the New Jersey Plan, the Constitution and the first sixteen amendments; Amendment 16 being the Amendment that introduced the income tax which was ratified Feb. 1913 was highly helpful and important reading.

It would be highly interesting if an anthology of the State Constitutions at that time were available in one collection since they, as well as the Articles of Confederation, influenced aspects of our current Constitution.

A worthwhile read for another perspective.

A classic in American constitutional history, Max Farrand’s famous account of the Federal Convention presents a vivid analysis of the conditions, the convictions, and the men who framed the Constitution of the United States. This basic work clarifies the intentions of the Founding Fathers and sheds light on the many issues of 1787 that are of vital importance today.
