Building a New Nation: The Federalist Era: 1789-1801

Building a New Nation chronicles the development of the new government following the signing of the Constitution. It explores the political views of the young nation’s leaders as they struggled to form a strong nation, despite the foreign and domestic dilemmas that they faced. The authors describe the beginnings of the two-party system, the administrations of the first three presidents, and key decisions by each branch of the government that shaped the future of the country. ©1997 Christopher Collier and James Lincoln Collier (P)2013 AudioGO
