"[Riggenbach] has a good sense of how to make history interesting. [He] gives the delegates
a forum to air their views, but his voice never intrudes on the weight of their words."AudioFile

"The research is thorough and diligent, and the writing is crisp and lucid."Dr. James Hutson, Library of Congress

You are there, in 1787 at America's constitutional convention, with the inside story as veteran print and broadcast
journalist Jeffrey St. John "reports" each day's proceedings, flavoring his dispatches with quotes from private
correspondence and notes of the delegates.

He captures the frustration, conflict, hope, and despair of America's founders during that long, sweltering summer
session, as the political future of the country hangs in the balance. It is an enthralling story, never before told in this
journalistic form.

San Francisco's Jeff Riggenbach has narrated more than fifty titles for Blackstone Audiobooks. He is an author, contributing editor, and producer and has worked in radio for the last thirty years. He is a recipient of the "Golden Mike" Award for his work in radio.
