Since "A Patriot's History. . . ." is now available on Amazon.com, I notice that Amazon also now lists a limited number of copies of the long out-of-print volume, "Our Ageless Constitution," 1987 Bicentennial Edition, by Stedman and Lewis, a 320-page work on the ideas and principles underlying the Declaration of Independence and Constitution. At the time of the Bicentennial, this book provided a reminder of the danger of the "living constitution" proponents who have, in the intervening years, further eroded our liberty in violation of the Constitution's own Amendment Process.

That book makes a great companion piece for "A Patriot's History of the United States," inasmuch as "Our Ageless Constitution" outlines the Founders' philosophy and principles. The Editors collaborated with many leading constitutional scholars who detailed step-by-step the methods by which we have strayed from those philosophies and principles over 200 years.

The Editors, in 1995, published an abridged version entitled "Rediscovering the Ideas of Liberty," but it did not contain the detailed accounts of judicial, legislative, and executive departures that the original volume did. "Rediscovering...."

Thank you, LS, for your work!

Cool. You're welcome. Amazon's execs are no fools. They know that conservative ideas---no matter when they were written---still have a market. Heck, next you'll see us "packaged" with "God and Man at Yale" and "Atlas Shrugged."
