A Defense of the Constitutions of Government of the United States of America V1: Against the Attack of M. Turgot in His Letter to Dr. Price, Dated March 22, 1778

John Adams

""A Defense of the Constitutions of Government of the United States of America V1: Against the Attack of M. Turgot in His Letter to Dr. Price, Dated March 22, 1778"" is a book written by John Adams. The book is a response to a letter written by Turgot, a French economist, in which he criticized the American government's system of government. Adams, who was one of the Founding Fathers of the United States, defends the American system of government and argues that it is superior to the French system. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which addresses a different aspect of the American government. Adams discusses the separation of powers, the role of the judiciary, and the importance of a written constitution. He also argues that the American government is better suited to protect individual rights and liberties than the French government. The book is an important historical document that sheds light on the intellectual debates that took place during the early years of the American republic.In Three Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
