"In their hope to promote the ratification of the United States Constitution to the American people, statesmen Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay, writing under the pseudonym "Publius," published eighty-five articles and essays between October 1777 and April 1778 under the title The Federalist. The Federalist Papers, as they are popularly known today, were instrumental in helping the American people and their leaders come together to establish the supreme law of the land for their fledgling country. This volume includes the full text of The Federalist Papers and a chronological timeline of events pertinent to their writing and the ratification of the United States Constitution. This special edition features an elegantly designed cover and a durable flexible binding. It is an indispensable addition to any home history library."-- Provided by Freading.
