Steve Bachmann. Illustrated by Jorge Diaz.
 
In a combination of witty text and illustrations
US Constitution For Beginners take a tonguein-
cheek look at America’s most critical legal
document. Author and lawyer Steve Bachmann
has written a text that touches on the document’s
history beginning with the Magna Carta. He then
traces the events that precipitated its writing, the
personalities and motives of the people who create
it, and its use and misuses since ratification. The
book analyzes crucial elements of this binding
set of principles and ponders the future of the
Constitution.
