Book Reviews of The Summer of 1787: The Men Who Invented the Constitution (The Simon & Schuster America Collection)

Book Review: A JIGSAW PUZZLE WITH LOTSA MISSING PIECES.
Summary: 2 Stars

This book is a collection of anecdotes about the Constitutional Convention and the Framers.

I was hoping for illumination, what I got was a collection of odds & ends that reveal little more than we already know.
