Features: The "Records of the Federal Convention of 1787" document the entire process by which the Founding Fathers of the United States designed the federal government, recording the speeches of the delegates during daily meetings. The entire book is printed based on Madison's original handwritten manuscripts from the Constitutional Convention, day by day, in a style similar to a serial. It captures the historical figures (delegates) in specific scenes (daily, increasingly in-depth debates), presenting their dialogue (speeches). From this, readers not only see the unfolding of the plot (the increasing number of topics) but also, through the dialogue, observe the gradual development and changes in the thoughts of the historical figures, understanding their personalities. At the end of the play (the complete record), a tragic atmosphere lingers, leaving the reader in long-lasting contemplation after closing the book.
