Today it's easy for us to take this blueprint of our government for granted. But the Framers--fifty-five men from almost all of the original 13 states--argued fiercely for many months over what ended up being only a four-page document. Here is a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the hotly fought issues--those between Northern and Southern States; big states and little ones--and the key players such as James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, and George Washington who suffered through countless revisions to make the Constitution happen. <p/><br></br><p><b> About The Author </b></p></br></br> Patricia Brennan Demuth is the author of several Who HQ titles, including<i> Who Was Bill Gates</i>?, <i>What Was Ellis Island</i>?, <i> What Was Pearl Harbor</i>?, and <i>Who Was Charlie Chaplin?</i> <p/>Tim Foley is a freelance illustrator who currently lives and works in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
