"This is a strange and remarkable book...[N]o one has ever written a book on the Declaration quite like this one. If we read the Declaration of Independence slowly and carefully, Danielle Allen believes, then the document can become a basic primer for our democracy. It can be something that all of us--not just scholars and educated elites but common people--can participate in, and should participate in if we want to be good democratic citizens."
-Gordon S. Wood, New York Review of Books, August 14, 2014.
Heh-heh-heh. Oh dear. With good nature we offer the above as counter--hallucinating, headquarters-in-hindquarters, put-down-your-crack-pipe, stay-away-from-strong-magnets-with-that-plate-in-your-head, counter--to the slow, careful reading of the Dec. of Ind. that we have done made here our ownselves. And have wrote about.
