[344]-351).The Declaration of Independence -- The U.S. Constitution -- Amendments to the Constitution.Here in a beautifully bound cloth gift edition are the two founding documents of the United States of America: the Declaration of Independence (1776), our great revolutionary manifesto, and the Constitution (1787-88), in which "We the People" forged a new nation and built the framework for our federal republic. Together with the Bill of Rights and the Civil War amendments, these documents constitute what James Madison called our "political scriptures," and have come to define us as a people. Now a Pulitzer Prize-winning historian serves as a guide to these texts, providing historical contexts and offering interpretive commentary.Annotated United States Constitution and Declaration of IndependenceConstitutional lawUnited StatesConstitutional historyUnited StatesConstitutional lawConstitutional history342.7302Rakove Jack N.1947-1088368United States.United States.United States.1st-27th Amendments.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910966523103321The annotated U.S. Constitution and Declaration of Independence4364224UNINA
