Trade Review
“How appropriate that this magnificent compilation of original essays is being published in the year that James Madison’s mansion at Montpelier has been restored to its original simple elegance. Every student of the early republic will enjoy and profit from this fascinating, well-crafted anthology.” * University of Wisconsin–Madison *
“(T)hese essays provide a rich and nuanced look at Madison’s life and legacy.” * H-Law *
“By emphasizing (Madison’s) activities and achievements during his long career, these authors (of two Madison books) help provide contemporary audiences with an increased appreciation of the fourth president of the United States.” * Virginia Magazine of History and Biography *
