Federalist Papers

The Federalist Papers is a collection of 85 essays written by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay under the pseudonym ""Publius"" between 1787 and 1788. The essays were written in support of the ratification of the United States Constitution and were originally published in newspapers throughout New York and other states. The essays cover a wide range of topics related to the structure and function of the new government, including the separation of powers, the role of the judiciary, and the powers of the executive branch. The Federalist Papers are considered one of the most important works in American political thought and are frequently cited by scholars and politicians to this day.THE mode of appointment of the Chief Magistrate of the United States is almost the only part of the system, of any consequence, which has escaped without severe censure, or which has received the slightest mark of approbation from its opponents. The most plausible of these, who has appeared in print, has even deigned to admit that the election of the President is pretty well guarded.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
