No one is who they seem in this intricate and fast-paced plot of global intrigue, revenge, and murder. High tech and low tech collide on the Appalachian Trail when a retired intelligence operative must identify his nephew’s assassin among a ragtag group of colorful hikers.

Focuses on six approaches that have dominated the modern study of the Founding - Progressive, Lockean/liberal, Republican, Scottish Enlightenment, multicultural, and multiple traditions approaches - before concluding with the Unionist or Federalist paradigm.

The first edition of Alan Gibson's Understanding the Founding is widely regarded as an invaluable guide to the last century's key debates surrounding America's founding. This new edition retains all of the strengths of the original while adding a substantial new section addressing a major but previously unaddressed issue and significantly revising Gibson's invaluable conclusion and bibliography.
