Description: The 1912 Constitution Of The United States & State of California Compiled by Secretary of State Frank C. Jordan is a historic document that includes some of the most important legal and political texts in American history. This hardcover edition is in great condition, with the only notable issue being a repair done between pages 148 and 149. The cover is also in good condition, with some black tape residue on the front. The book includes a range of important documents, starting with the Declaration of Rights of American Colonies from 1765 and 1774. These early declarations set the stage for the American Revolution and articulated the colonists' grievances against British rule. The Declaration of Independence, written in 1776, follows, and is considered one of the most important documents in American history. It outlined the principles of natural rights and popular sovereignty that would shape the new nation. The Articles of Confederation, adopted in 1781, are also included. This document served as the first constitution of the United States, but was ultimately replaced by the more effective Constitution of the United States, which is also included in this volume. The Constitution, ratified in 1788, established the framework of the federal government and has been amended only 27 times in over two centuries. In addition to the federal Constitution, this volume also includes the Constitution of the state of California, which was adopted in 1879. The Constitution of California outlines the structure and function of the state government and has been amended several times over the years. Finally, the book includes a summary of amendments submitted and a vote for and against each amendment between 1883-1911. This provides a fascinating glimpse into the political and social issues of the time and sheds light on the ways in which the Constitution was interpreted and modified over the years. Overall, the 1912 Constitution Of The United States & State of California Compiled by Secretary of State Frank C. Jordan is a valuable resource for anyone interested in American history or constitutional law. Its inclusion of multiple historic documents in a single volume makes it an important reference work, and its good condition and repair make it a desirable collector's item.
