Trade Review
“Congress of States is an impressive undertaking, recovering a crucial and complex year in the history of the United States. Unfolding in time, the documents show a would-be nation taking shape before our eyes, one symbolic and substantive step at a time.” —Edward L. Ayers, founding chair of the board of the American Civil War Museum and executive director of New American History
