If you are a bibliophile like me, the look, feel, smell, and even the sound of a book is important. As I build my personal library, I find that I really love leatherbound books. Canterbury Classics has a whole series of leatherbound editions of classic books that I started collecting.
My favorite so far is "The US Constitution and Other Writings" by Canterbury Classics. There is nothing more patriotic than owning a copy of the foundational documents of the United States of America.
The feel of the leatherbound covering is exquisite. I love the cool, rough texture of this edition and I find myself picking it up just to feel the weight and the rough surface of this 544-page tome. The cover is beautifully done with a navy blue color and the American flag on the front cover and the Betsy Ross Flag on the reverse. There is nothing like that new book smell. The pages are beautifully designed with gilded edges and the crinkling sound of the paper along with that sort of creaking sound made by the leather when you open it are extremely satisfying. And every Canterbury Classic has a 1/4" ribbon for a book mark. Canterbury thought of everything when they designed these books.
This book is a collection of the crucial documents, speeches, and other writings that shaped the United States. In addition to the Constitution, readers can review the Declaration of Independence, the Articles of Confederation, some of the Federalist Papers, important presidential speeches, and many others. Both famous and lesser-known, but equally important, Americans are represented, including Benjamin Franklin, Victoria Woodhull, Frederick Douglass, Susan B. Anthony, and even the creators of the rules of baseball. The founders' inspirational and revolutionary ideals are all here, and this is a perfect volume for anyone who finds the history of America to be a fascinating and enlightening journey.
And you absolutely cannot beat the price. The book comes in at an exceptionally reasonable $34.99 which is a steal for this heirloom quality edition. If you have the funds, I highly recommend picking it up as soon as possible. Find it at Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/Constitution-Other-Writings-Leather-bound-Classics/dp/1684120985/ref=sr_1_1?crid=22JIQJRBT4BIT&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.4WD-vLErGKue5SBa2zWZvwI56tfOI3OcfdExwqt_z1p8yPfOpHfQkEk0ddvDEnlef19llUeCbDtkZtpfdN3lFw.Mf3MfLe9GZfJqr0JHabqSpG6BmJMA9Cy27mE72q0A6U&dib_tag=se&keywords=canterbury+classics+constitution&qid=1766947320&sprefix=canterbury+classics+constitution%2Caps%2C380&sr=8-1
I try to read the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution once a year. But I find that once I pick this book up, I can't put it down. It is THE ultimate patriotic reading experience.
