The United States Bill of Rights
About this book
"The United States Bill of Rights" by United States comprises the first ten amendments to the Constitution, proposed in 1789 and ratified in 1791. Born from fierce debate over constitutional ratification, these amendments address Anti-Federalist objections by guaranteeing personal freedoms including speech, religion, and assembly. Championed by James Madison, who initially opposed such enumeration, the Bill of Rights explicitly limits federal power while reserving unenumerated rights to states and citizens—establishing foundational protections that would later extend beyond federal governance.
