"This handsome edition of Fisher Ames's work is essential reading
for all students of the early American republic."--Journal of the
Early RepublicFisher Ames was a leading New England Federalist and
sublime critic of Jacobin Democracy and the French Revolution.
During the presidency of George Washington, he was the leader of
his party in the House of Representatives. Ames was active in
public life from 1787 through 1807 and was instrumental in one
drafting of the First Amendment to the Constitution. His witty,
often brilliant, letters, speeches, and essays offered a sustained
defense of conservative principles and insight into the Federalist
theory of government.This enlarged edition includes many speeches
and writings by Ames that were omitted from the original edition of
Ames's works published in 1854.
