America's Forgotten History: Part One. Foundations (Paperback)

Part one of a history of the American system from a libertarian/constitutionalist point of view. Puritans and Cavaliers fought the English Civil War; Puritans fled to Massachusetts, Cavaliers to Virginia. They allied against the Mercantilism of Britain to form a new system based on the Enlightenment philosophy of Locke, Montesquieu etc. Parties formed around Jefferson (Enlightenment, strict constitutional interpretation) and Hamilton (Mercantilism, loose interpretation) that would frame America's philosophical dispute until the collapse of Jeffersonianism at the Democratic convention of 1896. Part One covers English roots, the colonial period, the Revolution and Constitution, the first four presidential administrations. CONTACT [email protected]
