This book compiles Masons, legislators, and other notable state figures' public hearings from 1789. The ultimate aim of the book is to illustrate the complexity and contentiousness surrounding debates on the naturalization of immigrants, the regulation of trade, the separation of church and state, the care of the mentally ill, and the abolition of slavery in the United States during the late 18th century. The author argues that these debates laid the foundation for the social and political values that define the nation today, and that the arguments made during this formative period continue to shape modern political discourse.
