It was a really hard book to read, but really interesting.
barrettclark's review
This is very tedious to read on it's own. I would really love to do some sort of moderated or guided study that take The Federalist and Anti-Federalist papers together and adds additional historic context and commentary.

A must read for anyone who wishes to understand the Founding Father's ideas for our form of government. These were articles published in various newspapers to persuade states to ratify the Constitution. There is no better way to understand the separation of powers, the reasoning for three branches of government and their purposes, and our entire system of government.

I read this a long while back in grad school. It was a great foundation for understanding U.S. government and the framing of how things could / can / do work.
