Book Overview

Construction Construed, And Constitutions Vindicated is a book written by John Taylor and originally published in 1820. The book is a detailed examination of the United States Constitution, with a particular focus on the powers of the federal government and the rights of the states. Taylor argues that the Constitution was designed to limit the power of the federal government and to protect the rights of the states and individual citizens. He also explores the concept of constitutional construction, or the interpretation of the Constitution, and argues that it should be done in a way that is consistent with the original intent of the framers. Throughout the book, Taylor provides numerous examples and historical references to support his arguments. Overall, Construction Construed, And Constitutions Vindicated is a significant work in the history of American constitutional law and political theory.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
