States of America, you understand that The Constitution of the United States and The Declaration of Independence
are two of the most important documents in American history. They
convey the principles on which the country was founded and provide the
ideals that still guide American politics today.
Signed by the members of the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia on September 17, 1787, The Constitution
outlines the powers and responsibilities of the three chief branches of
the federal government (executive branch, judicial branch, legislative
branch), as well as the basic rights of the citizens of the United
States (freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of religion,
etc.)
The Declaration of Independence was crafted by
Thomas Jefferson in June of 1776 and it provides the foundation of
American political philosophy. “We hold these truths to be self-evident,
that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator
with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and
the pursuit of Happiness.”
Collected here in one affordable,
pocket-sized volume are some of the most valued pieces of writing in the
history of our country. This edition contains The Constitution of the United States of America, including The Bill of Rights and all of the subsequent amendments, as well as The Declaration of Independence.
These are word-for-word facsimiles of significant documents… Every American should own a copy.
