Originally published in 1828 by Arthur J. Stansbury, this popular book quickly became an educational cornerstone for studying the US Constitution. For over a century it was central to learning about how America’s government worked and could be found everywhere—millions of copies were distributed to classrooms, churches, colleges, and military institutions, including soldiers on the Civil War battlefield. It enlightened minds and fostered a deep understanding and appreciation of the principles that form the foundation of the United States.
