Few understand that America's Constitution was created during a time of relative peace, and through the thoughtful deliberation of men dedicated to the establishment of a Republic that would provide security and liberty for its citizens. This itself is rather unique in history. Having met for the purpose of revising the Articles of Confederation (the original document that bound the 13 colonies / states together during and after the successful Revolution, these patriots soon agreed that an entire NEW document was needed to establish our democratic republic. After laboring through a long, hot summer in Philadelphia, they produced the Constitution of the United States of America as a complete replacement for the Articles of Confederation. Provisions in the Constitution required ratification by the states. While a majority of states quickly ratified the document, the State of New York suffered political factions strongly opposed to this document, making ratification by New York very much in doubt. Under the pen name of "Publius," John Jay, Alexander Hamilton and James Madison wrote a series of short essays addressing the arguments against the adoption of the new Constitution and their rationale in its favor. These essays were published in a number of New York newspapers and other publications, and are commonly known as "The Federalist Papers," or simply, "The Federalist." Where the original documents are written in the convoluted, difficult to understand 18th century English, these (arguably the most important) essays have been "translated" into modern day American English, and are thus easy to read and understand. I believe that a reading of these essays is essential to the understanding of the original intent and purpose of the system of government contained in our Constitution. I also believe that after reading these essays, that average American will question the wisdom of many of the amendments to the Constitution, as well as a number of important Supreme Court decisions. If it were in my power, I would require that one entire semester in high school would be spent on studying the three, founding documents; The Declaration of Independence, The Constitution and the Federalist. This book would be an excellent textbook for this course. I have read other "Translations" of the Federalist, and can attest to the fact that this book closely parallels the other interpretations, is laid out in a more logical sequence, and includes principles and guides to thinking that are extremely useful to the application of this book to today's issues. I highly recommend it.... and, again, if I had the power, would require the study of this book as a prerequisite to voting in any election. The Original Argument: The Federalists' Case for the Constitution, Adapted for the 21st Century ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book especially to understand Americas founding *by K***L on Reviewed in the United States on June 11, 2023* This book and the Federalist is one of the most important books on American history and why certain principles are still relevant. Moreso this book makes the original version understandable in modern language ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Easy Quick Read -if you want it that way *by S***L on Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2011* The Original Argument-you can use it several ways:cover to cover, topic summary,1 page shorts: message/original quote/relevance today.I have eye issues, those floaters make reading a nightmare. Reading used to be my greatest pleasure in life. Now that I am retired, that is basically denied to me. The government took off the market an OTC that cleared up floaters and gave me crystal clear vision. So you really have to want to read something to go thru this. Considering the current state of our nation and the peril it is in, I wonder. Gee, retired people get floaters, have more time to read and really get into the news, and maybe get active. They don't have to work, or raise a family, they have the time to "keep watch" and they see the past present and where the future is heading.Sound the alarm (if anyone is interested) I was relieved to learn that this book hit #1.So I am appreciative of how Glenn Beck arranged this book: The Original Argument.If I want or need to go deeper into a subject or issue, it is right there.The relevance today of how far we have strayed from the Constitution -that by the way some people want us to trash and start over! I don't think so.So if you have time issues, or vision issues, or whatever issues--be of good cheer,Just read those short pages sort of a synopsis of the 7 parts and be informed. You can always read more if you want to:in a few short pages7 parts summarized what it is meant to beand how it is perverted todaythere are 1 page: shorts that you could also just readsome sections have more than 1 of these:the messageoriginal quoterelevance todayand they do not use all of the federalist papersbut just the ones that apply to that subject.Here is your quick reference, and it is easy to read type.1 a new order for the ages -- 3-112 the great compromise --47-593 a republic if you can keep it --143-1524 the delicate balance of power-- 235-2415 minimum government maximum freedom --271-2806 taxation with representation -- 337-3437 truth justice and the American way --371-376Thank you, Glenn for making it available, affordable, and easy to read for even the vision impaired or time issues, or attention span issues.Now there is no excuse for not reading it. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/17859439-the-original-argument-the-federalists-case-for-the-constitution-adapted](https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/17859439-the-original-argument-the-federalists-case-for-the-constitution-adapted) --- *Product available on Desertcart Cyprus* *Store origin: CY* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
