A Constitutional Smack in the Face,
By bfish@atlantech.net (College Park, Maryland USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: We Hold These Truths: Undertstanding the Ideas and Ideals of the Constitution (Paperback)
Mr. Adler presents the basic truths upon which American government was founded. He extends these truths to look at the way American government has changed. This thought provoking book grabs the reader by his ideals and offers a thorough shake. Ever wonder what was meant by some of the phrases in the founding documents of the United States? Mortimer Adler carefully analyzes the texts of the Constitution, Declaration of Independence, and the Gettysburg Address to show where common themes lie and help identify the ideals to which any constituional country should aspire. This well written book moves quickly and the arguments put forth are clear and concise. Mr. Adler provides an education every American should absorb and live |
