3 page book, The author took the liberty of rewriting the bill of rights.
This is not the bill of rights. I’m not sure if it’s some kind of joke or what but the words are all wrong! I’m going to get my money back.

This Bill of Rights, was finally ratified by the States 1791. The Constitution was previously signed in 1787. The Articles of Confederation, drafted in 1776, and ratified by the States in 1781. It preceded the both the Constitution and Bill of Rights and it held the loose group of states together, until it's expiration in 1789. The plans to scrap the Articles of Confederation for a more "enlightened and Republican" form of Government looked then, and as it does today, to be a power grab than "enlightenment." The Constitutional reallocation of powers created a new form of government, unprecedented under the sun. Every previous national authority either had been centralized or else had been a confederation of sovereign states. The new American system was neither one nor the other; it was a mixture of both. ~ James Madison. Anti-federalists feared what Patrick Henry termed the "consolidated government" proposed by the new Constitution. They saw in Federalist hopes for commercial growth and international prestige only the lust of ambitious men for a "splendid empire" that, in the time-honored way of empires, would oppress the people with taxes, conscription, and military campaigns. Uncertainty lay in the concept that any government, over so vast a domain as the United States could be controlled by the "common people." Anti-federalists saw that with the enlargement and extent of powers now to be granted this "new" government only created the familiar threats to the rights and liberties of the people that had been a source of the War of Independence. The Articles of Confederation defined our original concept of a functioning government, and the allocation of respective powers to the States and Government. It was dropped and unceremoniously slid to the curb with the adoption of Constitution. I would encourage everyone to have a copy of all the documents. In reality, you can tell almost anyone something is guaranteed under the Constitution or Bill or Rights, and the majority of people would believe it no matter how surreal or ridiculous. Get original copies, who knows, they could be amended. Think of what we have already given up in the name of security. In May 1787 States met to discuss ways to improve the Articles of Confederation, during a "Grand Convention" organized by Statesmen, not the common man who was seen to be bereft of any abilities to govern themselves. Although the states' representatives to the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia were only authorized to amend the Articles, the representatives held secret, closed-door sessions and wrote a new constitution. The new Constitution gave much more power to the central government, but characterization of the result is disputed. History is important enough to know it.

Who can complain about the U.S. Bill of Rights. There are many books that explain it. This publication is plain and simple. It is just the Bill of Rights without commentary. You can interpret it yourself if you just understand what the world was like when the Founding Fathers drafted it. The only weapon for the common man was the blunderbuss. We didn't have semiautomatic weapons or Saturday night specials. We didn't have super highways. We were an agrarian society. We were starting from scratch. The Founding Fathers didn't want a repeat of some mistakes made in history. The separation of church and state -- part of the First Amendment -- was created to keep church doctrine from dominating government as is the case in some Middle-Eastern nations, or the converse, the government dictating a particular religion to the American citizens as happened in England's history. Thus, the country was built around religious freedom; not, as some people believe, Christianity. Subsequent topics tell how the government is set up with three branches -- the Legislative Branch (House of Representatives and Senate), the Executive Branch and the Judiciary. The Founding Fathers didn't want royalty. Everyone should have a copy, read it and understand it. Some other books that explain it in more detail are also recommended because the language of the era can lead to uncertainties about the intent of some clauses.

5.0 out of 5 stars An extremely important document to be read and reread
Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2021

The first ten original amendments to the US Constitution was passed by Congress on September 25, 1789 and ratified on December 15, 1791, and still extremely important today.
Amazon should be praised for making the three pages of the Ten Amendments available free of charge, and people should take advantage of this, acquire the book and read it - even more than once.

Straightforward. Original wording included. For a free document it's a decent source to use. Would recommend to anyone needing to refresh on the bill of rights.

Very well written but cases political precedents conspired with court justices. I believe we must return to the original Articles of Confederation and the Federalist Papers to secure the 10 amendments or strike them down and start over. The original constitution has been raped. Recommend reading with guidance of licensed Texas Teachers with knowledge of Texas Constitution authorized by commisions. Age 12+

Refresh your memory of our Bill of Rights, something I revere over any other principles in our history and government. So much focus on 2nd Amendment these days in politics, but I literally get chills reading the 1st Amendment and find it so much more important (if that’s possible?) and relevant to our times.

I can’t count the number of times that I have seen studies where the average US citizen cannot even say what is in the first amendment. This is a document that doesn’t guarantee the rights of the masses or a population, but guarantees the very rights of the individual. It’s a shame that the movement to socialism is so popular and being nurtured by the ignorance of the very people these words protect. “History will record with great astonishment that those who had the most to lose did the least to prevent it from happening.” - Ronald Reagan
