"History of the Origin, Formation, and Adoption of the Constitution of the United States" by George Ticknor Curtis is a detailed historical exploration of the United States Constitution's creation. It starts by examining the years before the Revolutionary War, explaining how the thirteen different colonies operated and their growing unhappiness with British rule. The book pinpoints the First Continental Congress as a crucial moment when the colonies started to work together against England. Curtis highlights the reasons why the leaders eventually wanted a strong, federal government. He looks at the ideas and important people that shaped the Constitution, and how these elements were essential for a united and successful America. It's a story about how a group of separate colonies came together to form a nation under a powerful new set of laws.
