""New Views of the Constitution"" is a book written by John Taylor that offers a fresh perspective on the United States Constitution. The author argues that the Constitution was intended to be a document that limited the power of the federal government and protected the sovereignty of the states. He also contends that the Constitution was not a perfect document and that it required amendments to address certain issues, such as the protection of individual rights. Taylor's book challenges the prevailing views of the Constitution at the time it was written and offers a unique interpretation of its meaning and purpose. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in American history, politics, or constitutional law.Let us suspend the consideration of contemporaneous testimony, and concisely review the ground we have passed over. Suppose the proceedings of the convention had been publick, and that all the panoply for the establishment of a national government, had been displayed in the newspapers. Suppose the states to have been alarmed by the exhibition, and to have remonstrated against the project. That this would have been the case, is demonstrated by the credentials to their deputies, and the opinions annexed to their ratifications.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
