Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Outstanding "2nd in a series of 3" on the U.S. Constitution
Review: This history lesson picks up where "A Constitutional Journal" leaves off. The Constitution has been written and agreed to by the members of the Convention of 1787, but it is not the legal foundation of the new Federal government until it has been ratified by 9 of the 13 newly-independent States. Mr. St. John's presentation and writing style -- as a newspaper reporter writing the news of the day -- captures the drama, including more than a few political shenanigans, and sense of urgency to ratify the proposed Constitution to maintain a cohesive union of the new United States of America. A great way to learn the most essential part of American history -- essential because we live it today. I urge you and your high school-aged children to read it.
