Description
When was the last time you sat down with the United States Constitution? This little book not only provides short biographies for each signer of the American Constitution, but encourages and provides resources to dig into the original document as well. As the longest abiding constitution, authors encourage readers to familiarize themselves with the original document before reading about the creators and ratifiers of the U.S. Constitution. The bios are arranged in this text by geographical locations, working from North to South. Of the 74 delegates invited, of the 55 who attended, only 39 remained to sign the Constitution. This text gives you a brief history of those 39 men. Endnotes include a copy of the Constitution along with additional reading resources. Pgs. 302, pb. ~Rebecca
