Synopsis
This book captures a singular moment at the end of the Revolutionary War as it presents contemporary letters, official documents, and other records from the time. The author intricately weaves the words of historical figures like George Washington, Alexander Hamilton and Benjamin Franklin together to chronicle the conflicts between states, and internal political divisions as the nation moved towards creating a singular identity under the Articles of Confederation. The historical breadth of this work examines the arguments concerning representation, slavery, and the powers of individual states within the new United States. The author also explores the views held by the general public and how they compare to the leaders, including moments of unrest in Philadelphia over soldier's pay. The book concludes that the ideas debated and refined during this tumultuous period laid the foundation for the future of American government and society.
