Books by John Jay and James Madison
The Federalist Papers
by Alexander Hamilton & John Jay and James Madison
The Federalist papers were written by Hamilton, James Madison and John Jay. They are a series of 85 articles, written anonymously to promote the ratification of the Constitution of the United States. Hamilton wrote most of them. Karl Rove, adviser to George Bush, described the Federalist Papers to us as “a work of great philosophical theory about the nature of the American government, the nature of the American experience… The greatest explanation in one place of the American constitution, of the essential underpinnings and structures that make American democracy possible.”
