85 essays in defense of the new constitution
by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay
- 1 Want to read
Originally published anonymously under the pseudonym "Publius" in 1787 through 1788, the "Federalist Papers" were a series of 85 letters to New York newspapers meant to counteract the Anti-Federalists writings of "Cato" and "Brutus." Exhorting voters to ratify the proposed Constitution of the United States, these essays are still debated and open to interpretation. The arguments presented here by three of America's greatest patriots and political theorists were created during a critical moment in the nation's history, providing readers with a running ideological commentary on the crucial issues facing democracy. Today, the Federalist Papers are as important and vital a rallying cry for freedom as ever
