## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent book.
*by S***E on November 26, 2024*

One of the best books I've read recently! I picked this book up out of curiosity, and not much background on the topic. It was perfect. The author beautifully presents background on arguments from all sides, and does so in a way that makes the book not only approachable, but quite enjoyable for the reader. Masterfully written.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ an instant classic
*by A***R on September 8, 2024*

A leading historian's definitive, generous-minded critique of originalism **on originalist grounds**. Gienapp's discussion takes seriously the proposition that we should engage with the Founders' world view on its own terms. He takes seriously the proposition that their settlement should govern our modern constitutional options. And then he methodically disassembles the entire edifice of modern judicial and academic originalism, **as a matter of the Founders' original understanding of how constitutions worked**This book is an instant classic. Even leading originalists agree that Gienapp meets them on their own ground. You can be the judge of whose reading is best.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Come for the critique, stay for the history!
*by H***R on November 19, 2024*

This book offers a compelling critique of constitutional originalism, which both critics of originalist legal theories and (good-faith) defenders of originalism should find extremely valuable. But I’m a historian, and what I love about this book are its exploration of political ideas in early America, the strange and surprising features of this world, and Gienapp’s clear accounts of what it means to think historically. Read this bookcover-to-cover! And check out the author’s other book, The Second Creation, too.
