This book examines what 'republicanism' meant to the Americans who drafted and ratified the United States Constitution, guaranteeing a 'republican form of government' to every state in the Union. M.N.S.Sellers compares the writings and speeches of the founders with the authors they read and imitated to identify the central tenets of American republicanism, and to demonstrate that American republican though directly reflected classical models, rather than a mediating tradition of English or continental political theory.

American republicanism
Once upon a time, I taught a course on American political thought. And this is a text that I used. While there is nothing especially unique in this book, it is a nice and literate chronological examination of the evolution fo American thinking about politics.
The first two parts provide a general background--including the English context. Part three looks at the development of revolutionary thought, culminating with the Declaration of Independence. Part 4 focuses on the movement toweard an American Constitution. And on it goes. . . . The book ends with a discussion of "Postwar Conservatism and the New Left."
Published in 1972, this does a decent job of covering the subject up to that point in time.
