The book offers an in-depth analysis of early American constitutional development, essential for understanding the formation of the U.S. Constitution. It includes two new chapters that explore precedents found in state constitutions and critically evaluate the 'republicanism over liberalism' thesis in the context of early political ideas and institutional frameworks. This comprehensive study has been a foundational reference for serious scholars in the field for the past two decades.
