It’s more important than ever for every American to know exactly what the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the Declaration of Independence actually says. Here is the essential, 45-page, pocket-size edition.

Now a USA Today Bestseller!

The greatest gifts from our Founding Fathers are the two most fundamental documents in American politics. This quick, easy reference for our federal government’s structure, powers, and limitations includes:
  • The Constitution of the United States
  • The Bill of Rights
  • All Amendments to the Constitution
  • The Declaration of Independence

Whether you are a Democrat, Republican, or independent, whether you are a support of Donald Trump or not, if you live and vote in the United States of America, you understand that
The Constitution of the United States and The Declaration of Independence are two of the most important documents in American history. They convey the principles on which the country was founded and provide the ideals that still guide American politics today.

Signed by the members of the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia on September 17, 1787,
The Constitution outlines the powers and responsibilities of the three chief branches of the federal government (executive branch, judicial branch, legislative branch), as well as the basic rights of the citizens of the United States (freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of religion, etc.)

The Declaration of Independence was crafted by Thomas Jefferson in June of 1776 and it provides the foundation of American political philosophy. “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”

Collected here in one affordable, pocket-sized volume are some of the most valued pieces of writing in the history of our country. This edition contains
The Constitution of the United States of America, including The Bill of Rights and all of the subsequent amendments, as well as The Declaration of Independence.

These are word-for-word facsimiles of significant documents… Every American should own a copy.

Review

“Don’t interfere with anything in the Constitution. That must be maintained . . . for it is the only safeguard of our liberties. And not to Democrats alone do I make this appeal, but to all who love these great and true principles.”
–Abraham Lincoln

"Whilst the last members were signing [the Constitution], Doctor Franklin, looking towards the President's chair, at the back of which a rising sun happened to be painted, observed to a few members near him, that painters had found it difficult to distinguish in their art, a rising, from a setting, sun. I have, said he, often and often, in the course of the Session, and the vicissitudes of my hopes and fears as to its issue, looked at that behind the President, without being able to tell whether it was rising or setting; but
now at length, I have the happiness to know, that it is a rising, and not a setting sun.”
–Benjamin Franklin (1787)

The free system of government we have established is so congenial with reason, with common sense, and with a universal feeling, that it must produce approbation and a desire of imitation, as avenues may be found for truth to the knowledge of nations.”
–James Madison (1826)

“If in the opinion of the People, the distribution or modification of the Constitutional powers be in any particular wrong, let it be corrected by an amendment in the way which the Constitution designates. But let there be no change by usurpation; for
though this, in one instance, may be the instrument of good, it is the customary weapon by which free governments are destroyed.
–George Washington (1796)

    This is a handy little pocket sized book to quickly reference anything in the Constitution or the Declaration of Independence. It’s been a bit since I last learned all the amendments, and my memory isn’t what it used to be. I appreciate having a handy reference to be sure I am quoting the proper amendment on occasion when necessary.

    Also, the price is so good, I ordered extras to give to family and friends. It’s always a good thing to know and understand the supreme laws that govern our country.

    I recently purchased a pocket-sized book of the U.S. Constitution. It is a timeless and essential document that serves as the foundation of American democracy, providing a comprehensive and detailed look at its history, key principles, and the amendments that have shaped it over time. Reading through this compact version is not only educational but also enlightening, offering insight into the values and beliefs of the Founding Fathers and the challenges they faced in creating a durable government system. In today's political climate, understanding the U.S. Constitution and the rights and responsibilities it guarantees is crucial. This pocket-sized book is a valuable resource for anyone looking to deepen their knowledge of American government and history, and I highly recommend it for those interested in the principles that govern our nation and the ideals we strive to uphold.

    I liked the idea of this handy book on the U.S. Constitution which fits inside any purse, in clothing, and nice gifts too. I purchased three and gave one to my best friend, who is from Germany. Now, when she hears about the constitution in the news or in conversation, she has a handy reference tool to learn what each Amendment is in our Constitution. Great tool to keep, too

    Very good small booklet to read and understand our Constitution. I'm amazed at the level of detail & clarity involved; the Founding Fathers had to have been ordained for this purpose. Interesting to see the dates for which each amendment was proposed and then ratified. Important Info to re-learn in these turbulent times.
