An annotated version of the Constitution now appears between Chapters 3 and 4 of the text, providing you with straightforward language to understand constitutional provisions. To help you understand, analyze, and apply founding principles, annotated versions of the Declaration of Independence, Federalist 10, and Federalist 51 appear in the Appendix.
