内容简介

A Classic in American constitutional history, Max Farrand's famous account of the Federal Convention presents a vivid analysis of the conditions, the convictions, and the men who framed the Constitution of the United States. For his graphic portrayal of these historic proceedings, Farrand draws upon his detailed knowledge of the convention's daily records and other valuable sources, such as the private correspondence of important delegates, William Pierce's sensitive character sketches of his fellow delegates, contemporary pamphlets, and delegates' report to their own states.
