Many historians marvel at the breadth of the political and historical thought
in the members of the Constitutional Convention and reference, inter alia,
the debt to Locke, Montesquieu and Voltaire. Are there any books which have a
thesis that the political philosophy which came to dominate the American
pre-Revolutionary period was the natural culmination in the evolution of
European intellectual thought throughout the 17th and 18th centuries?
