An Outstanding Introduction to the History of Our Constitution. By "Introduction" I don't mean that this book is basic or simplified. Rather, Prof. Ellis introduces information about the Constitution and its origin that is not taught in most American history courses and which should be required, if only for members of Congress and the Supreme Court. In particular, those Americans who rant about "original intent" should be required to memorize Jefferson's eulogy. All in all, The Quartet is an outstanding contribution to the study of American history.

The Quartet. I learned a great deal from Ellis' overview of the goals and hurdles of the four key figures working to produce a groundbreaking constitution. His careful and interesting descriptions of the infighting between dedicated politicians--each with his own regional interests at stake--helped me see the roots of states rights positions in various conflicts in modern times. I am not a historian, but I now have a fuller view of the roots of gun control and anti-tax issues, to name a few, because Ellis sets a full stage of American emotions after the colonies freed themselves from the British monarchy.

Contemporary History. This book sheds light on our current political situation by showing that the conflicts we see today were present at the beginning. In fact it points out in stark relief the built in paradox between federalism and individual autonomy.

The Quartet. The Quartet Clarifies a lot of the political history that ensued after the Revolution, and which continues to this day. Anyone who reads this will definitely understand such phenomena as the Tea Party, and will moreover realize why we could never could have come up with the Constitution, had the founders possessed the mindset of the contemporary conservative politicians.
