A View of the Constitution of the United States of America (1829/1998)
By William Rawle, LL.D. (Crown Rights)
William Rawle, a Philadelphia lawyer and staunch Federalist, considered this excellent treatise on the federal Constitution an "elementary treatise" for "the American Student." The organised principles remained "unaltered" as it was used to teach cadets at the United States Military Academy at West Point as well as the critical text in most schools. The federal government endorsed this book as representing the right of the people "to determine how they will governed." It accurately represents the intent of the framers but is not recognised by today's reconstructionist. 344 pages ~ Paperback only, #B193PB, $13.00.

Education)
A selection from over three hundred articles and essays
written by Clyde N. Wilson, professor of history at the
University of South Carolina, between 1969 and 2001. Jeffersonian
Democrats, also known as Southern con-servatives, were once
numerous in politics. They are seldom heard from any more.

American history and current events and political trends
from this viewpoint. Joe Stromberg, who wrote the preface
and holds the Ann B. Rothbard Chair at the Ludwig von Mises
Institute, writes that Wilson is “one of a vanishing
small group of professional historians who do not regard
Southern life and history as one dark, Gothic misfortune
after another.” 350 pages ~ Hardcover, #B307HC, $24.95.
