Description
The Summer of 1787 takes us into the sweltering
room in which the founding fathers struggled for
four months to produce the Constitution the
flawed but enduring document that would define
the nation8212thn and now.George Washington
presided, James Madison kept the notes, Benjamin
Franklin offered wisdom and humor at crucial
times. The Summer of 1787 traces the struggles
within the Philadelphia Convention as the
delegates hammered out the charter for the
world8217sfirst constitutional democracy.
Relying on the words of the delegates themselves
to explore the Convention8217ssharp conflicts
and hard bargaining, David O. Stewart lays out
the passions and contradictions of the, often,
painful process of writing the Constitution. It
was a desperate balancing act. Revolutionary
principles required that the people have power,
but could the people be trusted? Would a
stronger central government leave room for the
states? Would the small states accept a Congress
in which seats were allotted according to
population rather than to each sovereign state?
And what of slavery? The supercharged debates
over America8217soriginal sin led to the most
creative and most disappointing political deals
of the Convention. The room was crowded with
colorful and passionate characters, some
known8212Alxander Hamilton, Gouverneur Morris,
Edmund Randolph8212an others largely
forgotten. At different points during that sultry
summer, more than half of the delegates
threatened to walk out, and some actually did,
but Washington8217squiet leadership and the
delegates8217inspired compromises held the
Convention together. In a country continually
arguing over the document8217soriginal intent,
it is fascinating to watch these powerful
characters struggle
