Description

This is the third and final volume documenting Rhode Island’s private and non-private debates about the Constitution. This documentary series is a research tool of remarkable power, an unrivaled reference work for historical and legal scholars, librarians, and students of the Constitution. The volumes are encyclopedic, consisting of manuscript and printed documents-up to date newspapers, broadsides, and pamphlets-compiled from hundreds  of sources, copiously annotated, thoroughly indexed, and continuously accompanied  by microfiche supplements.
 Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Michael Kammen has noted that The Documentary History of the Ratification of the Constitution series “will probably be of enduring value centuries hence” and described it as “one of the interesting documentary publications we’ve ever had.”  The American Bar Association Journal has stated, “Each and every new volume now fills some other important a part of the mosaic of national history.”
