Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. First Printing [Stated]. xii, [2], 336, [2] pages. Illustrations. Map. Appendices. Abbreviations. Notes. Index. This is one of the Pivotal Moments in American History series. Foreword by David Hackett Fischer, one of the Series editors. DJ has minor wear, soiling, and reap flap creases. Richard Labunski is an American journalism professor at the University of Kentucky and newspaper columnist who is an outspoken advocate for reforming the United States Constitution in his book The Second Constitutional Convention. Labunski's book, James Madison and the Struggle for the Bill of Rights, argued that Madison was initially lukewarm to the idea of a Bill of Rights to the Constitution, but later came to energetically support the ten amendments and worked hard for their inclusion. Richard Labunski offers a dramatic account of not one but several major political struggles which changed the course of American history. Labunski takes us inside the sweltering converted theater in Richmond, where for three grueling weeks, the soft-spoken Madison and the charismatic Patrick Henry fought over whether Virginia should ratify the Constitution. If Virginia voted no, George Washington could not become president, New York might follow suit and reject the Constitution, and the young nation would be thrust into political chaos. But Madison won the day by a handful of votes, mollifying Anti-Federalist fears by promising to add a bill of rights to the Constitution. To do this, Madison would have to win a seat in the First Congress. Labunski shows how the vengeful Henry prevented Madison's appointment to the Senate and then used his political power to ensure that Madison would run against his good friend James Monroe. Madison won by a few hundred votes, allowing him to sponsor the Bill of Rights. Packed with colorful details about life in early America, this compelling narrative is the first serious book about Madison written in many years. It will return this under-appreciated patriot to his rightful place among the Founding Fathers.…
