Originally published by Reed Publishing Company in 1903. Two Trails Publishing mad additions and corrections in 1999, and reprinted with additional corrections and changes in 2004. Publishers Note: "Whie the author has only been able, with the limited space at his command, to give a rough sketch of these notes lives of outlawry, he has, unconsciously, perhaps, presented a character study of those troublous times during and after the war which made and unmade men. Whether it was his intention or not, he has shown that war is not a garment to be lightly put on or off, for across the souls of most of these men it plowed deep, dar furrows which left their lasting scars."Fine condition. Looks like new. Cover and pages are clean and tight with no edge or corner wear. Please see photos. 199 pages including Index.

Description:
Quote from back cover:"This is a hair-raising book. It shows how, at stage after stage, the fight to draft and ratify the Constitution, to draft and pass the Bill of Rights, could have failed. It proves again that the tiny Madison was a giant." - Garry Wills
"Today we hold the Constitution in such high regard that we can hardly imagine how hotly contested was its adoption. Now Richard Labunski offers a dramatic account of a time when the entire American experiment hung in the balance, only to be saved by the most unlikely of heroes - the diminutive and exceedingly shy James Madison."
Very Good condition. Some rubbing and bumping to covers. Page 257/258 has a top corner crease. Very minimal edge/corner wear. Spine not creased. Clean and tight.
