I read some of the reviews at Amazon.

The 1783-1789 period was tumultuous. Prosperity didn't follow the peace. Little is known of this confusing period at FR. It is definitely worth studying today. What passed for government under the Articles of Confederation began to dissolve before the battle of Yorktown. Morris, Morris and Washington were the de facto executive branch of government that didn't have one.

While The Quartet looks like a worthwhile purchase, I'd like to read a comparison of it and Gordon S. Wood's The Creation of the American Republic, 1776-1787 before I buy.

Ping. I’ve ordered this book.

Thanks for the heads up. Both now on my to do reading list.

I’m reading The Quartet now and I’ve read Wood’s book as well. Both well worth reading.
