I was relaxing this weekend when I got a knock on the door. My neighbors had come over to deliver a package that arrived for me that they had picked up. Inside where my two new babies that I ordered! No, I didn't order human flesh, don't worry. The babies that I'm talking about are my new primary source books from libertyfund! A primary source is a document or other type of medium that was written in the time period in question. For example, a journal entry by George Washington about troop movements would be a primary source. A book written about George Washington, would not be a primary source, it would be a secondary source. Anyways, I'm really excited about these books because they have some fantastic documents that will prove very beneficial for writing papers and expanding my general knowledge about the time period between ratifying the constitution and The War of 1812 which is the first book, and the second book, which highlights key documents between reconstruction years and The New Deal. Below you can find the table of contents for both books.
Liberty and Order: The First American Party Struggle
The American Nation: Primary Sources
