"This book is about American politics and law; it is also about the roots of the Contract with America.... A logical place to find the intent of the Founders is in Locke, [and] Stephens makes a contribution by highlighting this."
- Newt Gingrich
"Understanding just what motivated and inspired America s founding generation is essential if we are to uproot threats to our liberty. George Stephens appraisal of the thoughts and inspirations of James Madison and Co. is a very welcome addition to our understanding of these remarkable men and times. He shows how unfaithful we have been to their design."
- Donald J. Boudreaux, Chairman and Professor, Department of Economics, George Mason University; former president, Foundation for Economic Education.
"The rule of law is essential to a free society. In this book, George Stephens makes the important argument that a law that shifts with the tides of time and public sentiment is a recipe for tyranny."
- Clint Bolick, Institute for Justice, Washington, DC.
