Publisher's Synopsis

""The Letters of Fabius in 1788 on the Federal Constitution"" is a collection of letters written by the pseudonymous author Fabius, who argued against the ratification of the United States Constitution in 1788. The letters were originally published in the New York Journal and were intended to persuade readers to reject the Constitution and instead support the Articles of Confederation. Fabius argued that the Constitution would create a strong central government that would infringe on the rights of the states and the people. He also criticized the lack of a bill of rights and the potential for abuse of power by the executive branch. The letters provide insight into the debates and concerns surrounding the ratification of the Constitution in the late 18th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
