Fault Lines in the Constitution: The Framers, Their Fights, and the Flaws that Affect Us Today
Some of the features in our political system get taken for granted, but they came about through haggling in an overheated room in 1787, and we’re still experiencing the ramifications. Beginning each chapter with a story that directly connects to the Constitution, authors Cynthia and Sanford Levinson take readers back to the creation of this historic document and discuss how contemporary problems were first introduced—then they offer possible solutions.
