“The most famous and influential American political work!” (Howes)



‘The Federalist,’ or ‘Federalist Papers,’ was a collection of articles and essays by famous Founding Fathers in the hopes of promoting the ratification of the United States Constitution. Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, and James Madison presented arguments that helped establish the term ‘federalism,’ discussed the Bill of Rights, and early commentary on checks and balances in the judicial system.



This rare 1842 ‘new edition’ was printed with an appendix that consists of the Letters of Pacificus and Helvidius on the Proclamation of Neutrality of 1793, based on the first Hallowell edition of 1837.
