| Publisher Description: A Noble Enforcement is a book about laying the seeds for the ideas behind the Magna Carta and a short bio of the Twenty-Five barons who were chosen to enforce the ideas of the document. Although the enforcement fails, the ideas remain for forging liberty through and into the writing of the U.S. Constitution. There have, of course, been different reactions to the Great Charter According to Sir Winston Churchill "...Here is a law that is above the King and which even he must not break. This reaffirmation of a supreme law and its expression in a general charter is the great work of Magna Carta, and this alone justifies the respect in which men have held it'... " William Pitt the Elder states: "the Magna Carta is the Bible of the English Constitution." Franklin D. Roosevelt noted: 'The democratic aspiration is no mere recent phase in human history. It is human history. It permeated the ancient life of early peoples. It blazed anew in the Middle Ages. It was written in Magna Charta.' On U.S. History, Mr. Warden has written: Trump's Triumph? A short Analysis of his Positions. |
