I didn't think you were ever going to ask me to comment on this book. Let me start by saying, "Wow!" If this book is correctly stating what the Constitution might have been and what it turned out to be, then it is earthshaking. This book is not like reading The Enquirer that you pick up at the grocery store check-out. This appears to be scholarship, but there is not a single footnote! The man appears to have written it off the top of his head, but he does give direct quotations, mostly Hamilton's writings in the Federalist Papers. There is a section -- too long and too tedious -- toward the end of discussion of a pamphlet called "one of the People" written a short time preceding Taylor's book. Taylor puts it down, but that is not too much of a task. You can see for yourself that the anonymous writer of One of the People was not a Taylor, Hamilton, Madison, et al.The ominous element of the book is that originally, there was a strong/credible effort made by certain of the delegates to the Constitutional Convention for a document that would NOT incorporate "federal" structure, but rather would have provided for a complete national or monarchial structure. Before all the delegates had arrived, the "nationalists" were in ascendancy. Their plans were entirely in the open and debated by the delegates, and appeared a though they were going to be carried. Two delegates left the convention in disgust, but it turns out they left too early, as the delegates when all state representatives were finally assembled (twelve states authorized delegates with credential) got the document back on track as a "federal" structure.
I will not ruin it for those who want to read the book, but it will knock your socks off as to who the most powerful debaters were in favor of a "nationalist" structure. Taylor gives reasons to fear that the "nationalist" supporters were not going to give up! Too strongly held opinions and too powerful intellectually and gifted with words and debate. He believed we would probably end up with a "nationalist" government, IN SPITE OF WHAT THE DOCUMENT SAYS. The rest is history, starting with what the Civil War required to be interpreted to win the war, and culminating with the New Deal to approve doing whatever the President and Congress said we needed to do to survive the Great Depression.
That is enough. Read it.

New Views of the Constitution of the United States John Taylor 9781357817022 Books Reviews
Awesome book
Excellent book on john taylor.
After reading John Taylor's Treatise on the Constitution it should become obvious to the most casual observer that the Constitution is so loose that it enables the congressional cretins in conjunction with the "Supreme" court to violate every aspect of State's sovereignty that it was supposed to guarantee. This book should enlighten one to get active in supporting conservative thought and legislation.
Twentieth Centurions often credit modern conservatism with being the brainchild of Russell Kirk, Barry Goldwater or some other recent conservative, but John Taylor of Caroline clearly demonstrates in this classic work that conservatism has had long established roots in American society. First published in 1823, we find that government usurpation of the rights of states and individuals is not exactly a twentieth century revelation.
The language of 180 years ago, coupled with Taylor's agonizing repetitiveness, make this a somewhat tedious and difficult read, but one that is certainly worth the effort. The basic theme of the book is how nationalism was proposed and defeated in favor of federalism at our Constitutional Convention, however, there has been, from the beginning, a behind the scenes push to propagate a system of nationalism by what would be considered today, a liberal governmental faction. Taylor meticulously explains how this objective was set into motion and its consequences of the deterioration of states rights and personal freedoms. It doesn't take much effort for the knowledgeable reader to see how that battle has been furthered in the years since Taylor first exposed the nationalism gameplan.
Americans today tend to look upon the misdeeds of government and ask, "How can they get away with doing that?" Taylor clearly illustrates how it all began and that there is nothing new under the sun. But he also goes further in explaining various ways of "righting the ship" so to speak, and discusses the consequences of each differing course of action.
Oh, if we could only find a congressman today who possessed the clear headed tenacity of John Taylor of Caroline. A person who would fear not the consequences of unpopularity and stand tall to examine the true principles upon which our founding promoted.
If you are conservative, this book is a must read and will arm you with ammunition to clearly discuss states' rights and original intent. If you are a liberal, this outstanding book will help cure your mental condition and lead you down a path of understanding.
As an endnote, I don't normally comment on the quality of the book itself, but this one warrants comment. The book is printed on quality acid free paper and comes with a cloth bookmark. A nice touch.
