LiechtySomewhat densely packed; this is the scholarly; definitive view of the thinking of both groups debating the ratification of the Constitution. In explaining what the Anti-Federalists thought he goes into great depth on the Federalists too. New scholarship; and better writing styles by more current authors; will supplement what Storing wrote in this introduction to the three volume collected Anti-federalist writings. In one slim paperback.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Four StarsBy Stacy HarperGreat read!

Great bookBy K-DawgAwesome book to supplement the Anti-federalist book by Storing. It clearly sorts out the positions of the Anti-federalists and the counter arguments of the Federalist.
