Great American Texts: "Notes on the Convention of 1787"

Description

"James Madison's 'Notes' are by far the best record we have of the deliberations in the Constitutional Convention. They are one of the most authoritative records we have of the intentions of the framers of the Constitution when they were drafting that document. In this course we will study these 'Notes' as thoroughly as we can, aiming at a fuller understanding of the Constitution and the founding statesmanship that produced it."
