"Throughout this scrupulously researched interpretation of The Federalist papers, Carey provides a glimpse of our Republic's original design. He shows us what kind of federal union The Federalist's authors had in mind, and indicates how we have strayed from their intent."
Paul Gottfried, National Review "The best book yet published on The Federalist."
Paul Peterson, The Review of Politics "Serious scholars of American politics will find it stimulating and useful in deepening their own understanding of the American regime."
Charles E. Umbanhowar, Perspectives on Political Science "Likely to become a classic in its own right. The Federalist is excellent: well organized, carefully considered, incisive, lucid, concise, and masterful."
Ellis Sandoz, author of A Government of Laws: Political Theory, Religion, and the American Founding
