Description

The Constitutional Convention: A Narrative History from the Notes of James MadisonIn 1787, the American union was in disarray. The incompatible demands of the separate states threatened its existence; some states were even in danger of turning into the kind of tyranny they had so recently deposed. A truly national government was needed, one that could raise money, regulate commerce, and defend the states against foreign threats without becoming as overbearing as England. So thirty six year old James Madison believed. That summer,

In 1787, the American union was in disarray. The incompatible demands of the separate states threatened its existence; some states were even in danger of turning into the kind of tyranny they had so recently deposed. A truly national government was needed, one that could raise money, regulate commerce, and defend the states against foreign threats-without becoming as overbearing as England. So thirty-six-year-old James Madison believed. That summer, the Virginian was instrumental in organizing the Constitutional Convention, in which one of the world's greatest documents would be debated, created, and signed. Inspired by a sense of history in the making, he kept the most extensive notes of any attendee.Now two esteemed scholars have made these minutes accessible to everyone. Presented with modern punctuation and spelling, judicious cuts, and helpful notes-plus fascinating background information on every delegate and an overview of the tumultuous times-here is the great drama of how the Constitution came to be, from the opening statements to the final votes. This Modern Library Paperback Classic also includes an Introduction and appendices from the authors.

Great Product for Hard Water
Style: Shampoo
We have hard water and just after a week of using this I can already tell a difference, not only that but I've been using it on my upper arms, shoulders and neck and my keratosis pilaris is clearing up and my skin is smooth. Great product, happy I found it.

Not bad... but not great either.
Style: Shampoo
Let me make one thing perfectly clear at the get go: I am spoiled when it comes to shampoo & conditioners. My wife has super fine hair so she buys the expensive Biolage stuff and I use it too because I only need a tiny little dollop for my hair. So I know how my hair feels after pricey shampoo and this.. well.. this isn't it. Mind you, it's not bad. If I wasn't so used to to Biolage, I'm sure this would feel fine. However, this definitely made my hair feel like I had just washed with something like Salon Selectives. It just felt different. Maybe it's the aloe in there but my hair just didn't feel as nice as usual when I tried it. So, if you're used to low-to-mid range store bought shampoos, you might like this a lot. Jeez that sounds pretentious! LOL, sorry! Again, it's not like my hair fell out or anything weird, but I've had the good stuff and I'll stick with the good stuff. I'm still giving this 4 stars out of fairness for a perfectly fine shampoo. It still lathered up nicely and my hair was perfectly clean, but just don't expect a high-end feel.
