| book description |

Nosotros, el pueblo de Who HQ, traemos a los lectores la historia completa (argumentos y todo) de cÃ³mo surgiÃ³ la ConstituciÃ³n de los Estados Unidos. Â We the people at Who HQ bring readers the full story--arguments and all--of how the United States Constitution came into being in this Spanish entry in the WHO HQ series. Firmada el 17 de septiembre de 1787, cuatro aÃ±os despuÃ©s de la Guerra de la Independencia, la ConstituciÃ³n estableciÃ³ la ley suprema de los Estados Unidos de AmÃ©rica. Hoy es fÃ¡cil que demos por sentado este proyecto de gobierno. Pero los legisladores (cincuenta y cinco hombres de casi todos los 13 estados originales), discutieron ferozmente durante muchos meses sobre lo que acabÃ³ siendo solo un documento de cuatro pÃ¡ginas. Esta es una fascinante mirada entre bastidores a las cuestiones mÃ¡s disputadas (las de los estados del Norte y del Sur; los estados grandes y los pequeÃ±os) y a los actores clave, como James Madison, Alexander Hamilton y George Washington, que sufrieron innumerables revisiones para hacer realidad la ConstituciÃ³n. Â Signed on September 17, 1787--four years after the American War for Independence--the Constitution laid out the supreme law of the United States of America. Today it's easy for us to take this blueprint of our government for granted. But the Framers--fifty-five men from almost all of the original 13 states--argued fiercely for many months over what ended up being only a four-page document. Here is a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the hotly fought issues--those between Northern and Southern States; big states and little ones--and the key players such as James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, and George Washington who suffered through countless revisions to make the Constitution happen.
