      December 04, 2007: I found this book informative for my project on the Constitutional Convention but not entertaining in any way. If you nedd information this book is okay if you are looking for an interesting piece of history, not so much.

      August 24, 2006: I had to read this book over the summer for a Ap US History class, and it did not meet my expectations at all. The book is too long and the details are unnessary. I would not recomend this book to anyone who wants to find out facts, read an encyclopedia instead. It was annoying how the author switched from past to future and then present in the same paragraph. A book I had to force myself to read.
