Description

In American Epic, Garrett Epps takes us through a complete reading of the Constitution–even the “boring” parts–to achieve an appreciation of its power and a holistic understanding of what it says. In this book he seeks not to provide a definitive interpretation, but to listen to the language and ponder its meaning. He draws on four modes of reading: scriptural, legal, lyric, and epic.
