Synopsis

The Federalist Papers is a collection of 85 essays, written by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay. While many individuals today insist that we cannot know what the Founding Fathers intended when they wrote the U. S. Constitution, one needs look no farther than The Federalist Papers to see, in their own words, the answers to many of the questions that arise regarding that very document. What was to be the role of the Federal Government in taxation, defense, and trade? What limits were placed on Federal power? What about Federal Power vis-à-vis the power of the States? What if there were disagreements between the States? All these questions and more are addressed in this volume, written by those who knew a stronger central government was needed, while recognizing that there needed to be checks and balances to that power.
