Ratifying the Constitution in Pennsylvania cover

Michael H. Taylor examines in detail the debates around ratifying the Constitution in Pennsylvania.

This book breaks down the multiple week debates about ratification, looking at the arguments for and against ratification. Taylor places these debates within the context of the time and brings in analysis of Pennsylvanian newspapers. He exposes the persistent and vocal opposition to the Constitution in Pennsylvania and looks deeply into this as well as the revisions requested at the time.

This is a meticulous and well-written account of the ratification of the Constitution in Pennsylvania. It fills a conspicuous gap and is certain to be of interest to all students of the American Revolution. * William B. Ewald, University of Pennsylvania, USA *
