John Phillip Reid addresses the central constitutional issues that divided the American colonists from their English legislators: the authority to tax, the authority to legislate, the security of rights, the nature of law, the foundation of constitutional government in custom and contractarian theory, and the search for a constitutional settlement. Reid's distinctive analysis discusses the irreconcilable nature of this conflict--irreconcilable not because leaders in politics on both sides did not desire a solution, but because the dynamics of constitutional law impeded a solution that permitted the colonies to remain part of the dominions of George III.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Phillip Reid\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0299146642\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780299146641\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Wisconsin Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/15\/1995\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.57lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.93h x 5.96w x 0.42d","brand":"John Phillip Reid","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43981535838463,"sku":"9780299146641","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_83d59f3c-8212-4847-a5dc-835ce8bcd200.jpg?v=1683256149","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/constitutional-history-of-the-american-john-phillip-reid-9780299146641","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
