With the American revolutionaries in discord following victory at
Yorktown and the Paris Peace Treaty of 1783, the proposed federal
Constitution of 1787 faced an uncertain future when it was sent to
the states for ratification. Sensing an historic moment, three
authors - Alexander Hamilton, James Madison and John Jay -
circulated 85 essays among their fellow statesmen, arguing for a
strong federal union. Next to the Constitution itself, the
Federalist Papers are the most referenced statement of the Founding
Fathers' intentions in forming the U.S. Government. This book takes
a fresh look at the Papers in the context of the times in which
they were created.
