About This Item
Baton Rouge/London: Louisiana State University Press, 1988. Scholarly monograph arguing that the U.S. Constitution was neither inherited from the British nor invented by the Federalists in 1787, but is rather the culmination of ideas considered as early as the Mayflower Compact and other colonial documents, influenced by English common law, Whig theory, and secularized radical Protestant interpretations of the Judeo-Christian tradition. Lutz was a professor of political science at the University of Houston. Hardcover in jacket, as pictured. Light wear to book, name/address label of Constitutional scholar Gaspar 'Sal' Saladino on free endsheet; jacket with a short tear to front panel, chip to upper rear panel, minor edgewear; faint stain inside front cover. Text clean; [12], 178 pages; index. . First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/Good. Octavo.
