Wills; noted classicist and former writer at The National ...By MartyWills; noted classicist and former writer at The National Review; debunks many common Anti-Federalist notions that have survived in popular American political and social culture. He analyzes these arguments in light of the intents of the Founders and the Federalists; citing primary sources and viable secondary research in defining terms; discerning intentions and explaining that the opposition to the Constitution still survives in popular but constitutionally unfounded Right-Wing lore. Willis uses his classical education; experience as a political writer and judicious use of historical methodologies to provide a clearer understanding of both the Founding and of the constitutionally defined role of government. Moreover; this is a clear and simple read that should be accessible to everyone.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. When did it become a bad idea to read something that challenges one's preconceptionsBy Sam SpadeWhen did it become a bad idea to read something that challenges one's preconceptions? While one may not necessarily agree with all this book's conclusions; there is no doubt its arguments are well-researched and logical. A few points off for this book's citation of "Arming America: The Origins of a National Gun Culture" by Michael A. Bellesiles before proven fraudulent.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy Duffy 5319great
