Description

Discover the foundational American constitution that predates the United States by centuries. In A Constitutional League of Peace in the Stone Age of America, John Napoleon Brinton explores the Great Law of Peace — the oral constitution of the Iroquois Confederacy — and its profound influence on the American founding. Brinton argues that the Iroquois model of federalism, bicameral governance, and a written constitution served as a blueprint for the U.S. Constitution, an argument that has captivated historians and legal scholars alike.\n\nThis essential work connects indigenous political wisdom to the American democratic experiment, revealing how a pre-colonial society created one of the most enduring governance structures in history. Whether you are a law student, history buff, or interested in Indigenous studies, Brinton's analysis offers a compelling look at the roots of American democracy.
