Schools for Statesmen: The Divergent Educations of the Constitutional Framers

Explores the fifty-five individual Framers of the Constitution in close detail and argues that their different educations help explain their divergent positions at the 1787 Constitutional Convention. The book takes a deep dive into the diverse educational world of the eighteenth century and sheds new light on the origins of the US Constitution.
