Description

Volume XXI is the third of five volumes on this set, which covers New York State’s private and non-private debates concerning the Constitution and the calling of the state ratifying convention. The volumes feature countless newspaper items and letters in conjunction with New York Ratification chronologies, lists of workplace holders, and extensive editors’ notes.
 
In 1787, after the Constitution was once published, Antifederalists published a series of essays in New York newspapers, aggressively criticizing the document. Federalists quickly responded with their very own series of essays, including the best defense and explanation of the Constitution, The Federalist, written by “Publius” (Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, and James Madison). The debate had national implications as New York newspapers quickly was the principle source of Federalist and Antifederalist propaganda.
