Herbert J. Storings Complete Anti-Federalist, hailed as a civic event of enduring importance (Leonard W. Levy, New York Times Book Review), indisputably established the importance of the Anti-Federalists writings for our understanding of the Constitution. As Storing wrote in his introduction, If the foundation of the American polity was laid by the Federalists, the Anti-Federalist reservations echo through American history; and it is in the dialogue, not merely in the Federalist victory, that the countrys principles are to be discovered. This one-volume edition presents the essence of the other side of that crucial dialogue. It can be read as a genuine counterpart to the Federalist Papers; as an original source companion to Storings brilliant essay What the Anti-Federalists Were For (volume I of The Complete Anti-Federalist, available as a separate paperback); or as a guide to exploring the full range of Anti-Federalist writing. The Anti-Federalist makes a fundamental source of our political heritage accessible to everyone.About the AuthorHerbert J.
