The Anti-Federalist Papers are a collection of articles, written in opposition to the ratification of the 1787 United States Constitution. Unlike the Federalist Papers written in support of the Constitution, the authors of these articles, mostly operating under pen names, were not engaged in a strictly organized project. Major Anti-Federalist authors included Cato (likely George Clinton), Brutus (likely Robert Yates), Centinel (Samuel Bryan), and the Federal Farmer (either Melancton Smith, Richard Henry Lee, or Mercy Otis Warren). Speeches by Patrick Henry and Smith are included as well.

The complete texts of the documents that tell the story of the clashes and compromises that gave birth to the United States of America.

Should the members of the government be elected by the direct vote of the people?
Should the government be headed by a single executive, and how powerful should that executive be? Should immigrants be allowed into the United States?
In 1787, these important questions and others were raised by such statesmen as Patrick Henry and John DeWitt as the states debated the merits of the proposed Constitution. Along with The Federalist Papers, this invaluable book documents the political context in which the Constitution was born.

This volume includes the complete texts of The Anti-Federalist Papers and Constitutional Convention debates, commentaries, and an Index of Ideas. A series of essays arguing against a stronger and more energetic union as embodied in the new Constitution. It also lists cross-references to its companion volume, this work is considered, by many, to be the authoritative compendium on the publications.
