Back to the Republic: The Golden Mean: The Standard Form of Government

by Harry F. Atwood

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Reviews

[John]

A decent explaination of why this country became a Republic instead of a Democracy or other type of government. It has a great copy of the U.S. Constitution to include deleted, outdated or revised sections along with the amendments up to the date of the first printing(1918)

[Michael P Glasgow]

Great read on our Republic and how it was conceived. The philosophy if you will of our country's government and why it is considered the best way to govern.
