Description

Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, and James Madison wrote these 85 essays in 1787 and 1788 to make the case for the United States Constitution. They ask how a republic can govern itself, limit the power of its leaders, and hold together despite competing interests. This edition includes the complete essays, two editorial introductions, and endnotes.
