#1 New York Times bestselling author Bret Baier reveals how George Washington saved the Constitution-and the American experiment

"To Rescue The Constitution is a masterful exploration of the electrifying struggle to unite a young United States." --Jay Winik

A sweeping narrative ranging from the unsettled early American frontier and the battlefields of the Revolution to the history-making clashes within Philadelphia's Independence Hall, Bret Baier's To Rescue the Constitution dramatically illuminates the life of George Washington, the essential Founding Father who did more than perhaps any other individual to secure the future of the United States.

George Washington rescued the nation three times: first by leading the Continental Army to victory in the Revolutionary War, second by presiding over the Constitutional Convention that set the blueprint for the United States and ushering the Constitution through a fractious ratification process, and third by leading the nation as its first president. In this compelling work of American history, there is no doubt that the struggling new nation needed to be rescued--and that Washington was the only American who could bring them together.

After the victorious War of Independence, when a spirit of unity and patriotism might have been expected, instead the nation fractured. The states were no more than a loosely knit and contentious confederation, with no strong central union. It was an urgent matter of nation building that led to the calling of a Constitutional Convention to meet in Philadelphia during the summer of 1787.

Setting aside his plan to retire to Mount Vernon, Washington agreed to be a delegate at Philadelphia. There he was unanimously elected president of the convention. After successfully bringing the Constitution into being, Washington then sacrificed any hope of returning to private life by accepting the unanimous election to be the nation's first president. Washington was not known for brilliant oratory or prose, but his quiet, steady leadership gave life to the Constitution by showing how it should be enacted.

In this vivid and moving portrait of early America's struggles, Baier captures the critical moments when Washington's leadership brought the nation from the brink of collapse. Baier exposes an early America that is grittier and far more divided than is often portrayed--one we can see reflected in today's conflicts.

This gripping work of narrative nonfiction reveals:

  • A Leader Forged in War: Follow George Washington from the battlefields of the Revolution to the presidency, as he rescues the young nation not once, but three separate times.
  • The Fight for the Constitution: Go inside Philadelphia's Independence Hall for the history-making clashes and fractious debates that defined the Constitutional Convention and the future of the American experiment.
  • The First Presidency: Discover how Washington's quiet, steady leadership as the nation's first president gave life to the Constitution, showing a fledgling country how its new government should be enacted.
  • A Nation Divided: Uncover an early America that is grittier and far more divided than often portrayed--a searching look into our past that holds a mirror to the conflicts of today.

Perfect!
Color: Grey, Style: 2 Blocks
Perfect size and very stable and soft. This isn’t cheap and wobbly like some blocks — this is thick and my husband who is 220lbs uses it with no problem! Love it!

Good comfy product, good quality and aesthetic color
Color: Grey, Style: 2 Blocks
First yoga blocks I buy for home. Excellent texture and quality, they are really comfortable for support. The grey color is very aesthetic, I think the shade will be great for hiding any stains or dirt over time. They look expensive and I love that. I tried scratching them with my nails and the marks completely disappeared after a few minutes. The engraved logo is a nice plus. I love that they’re a bit taller than average blocks. The grip is good.

Keeps me cool!
Color: Blue/Grey/Green/Pink
These cooling towels are wonderful. I use them when I play pickleball. I get them really wet and then squeeze out any excess water. When I put one around my neck it is not dripping soaking through my shirt. I can use it to wipe my face and keep me cool. I can always add more water to it as needed. It is soft and the perfect size to wear around my nect.

Wet towels only
Color: Dark Grey/Grey/Brown/Black
Beware: these towels are supposed to be wet. They are meant to be soaked in water. If you soak them in water and then wrap them around your neck during indoor cycling, for example, they can cool down your neck and face perfectly. They are still pretty good towels when dry, and they still cool the skin when dry. But they are not the best for wiping and absorbing sweat when dry. If you want something to absorb sweat, then cotton towels are better. You can still use this product for cool drying. However, this product shines when you wet it down and use it for cooling, rather than drying. Overall, great product! Ivery soft and smooth on my skin.
