About the Book

- Foreword by Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States- Accompanies exhibition at the New-York Historical Society February 26-May 26, 2020 and the Museum of the American Revolution in Philadelphia June 1-July 5, 2020- First public view of these privately owned documents together, including a rare, privately owned copy of the original 1787 US Constitution- Timely publication during the politically charged 2020 US presidential election year Colonists, Citizens, Constitutions highlights documents that tell the story of American constitutionalism from the founding era through the turn of the twentieth century. Accompanying a major exhibition at the New-York Historical Society and the Museum of the American Revolution, the book features federal and state constitutional materials--including a rare, privately owned copy of the original 1787 US constitution--that offer essential windows onto the history of the United States. Remarkably numerous and impressively diverse, constitutions enabled Americans to create revolutionary governments of, by, and for the people. Weaving both well-known and less familiar documents into a compelling narrative, the accessible text reveals how Americans have exercised their constitutional powers to shape their communities and why democracy remains an ongoing process, one in which citizens must constantly strive to create "more perfect" unions among themselves.
