"In The Genuine Article, Edmund Morgan's first collection of essays in several decades, he presents a story that begins with the arrival of the first settlers in 1607 at the doomed Jamestown colony and ends as the Founding Fathers begin the arduous task of governing a formerly rebellious and often restless people."--BOOK JACKET.
