If you've ever wondered how a group of 18th-century soldiers, farmers, lawyers and businessmen managed to come up with our miracle of a Constitution . . . Berkin explains it in her exciting re-creation.-The Star-Ledger (Newark) We know the story of the American Revolution, from the Declaration of Independence to Cornwallis's defeat.

The author of five books, Berkin was a commentator for the PBS documentary Benjamin Franklin.…
