Novus Ordo Seclorum The Intellectual Origins of the Constitution by Forrest McDonald is a study of the ideas and passions of the Framers of the American Constitution. He reconstructs the intellectual world of the Founding Fathers and their differing opinions on law, history, political philosophy, and how their firsthand experience in public affairs affected their behavior in the Constitutional Convention. The Framers brought a variety of ideological and philosophical positions to bear upon their task and they were guided by their own experience, wisdom, and common sense.
