THENATIONALPULSE (The National Pulse) - America 250: How Washington’s Lowest Day and the Flight of Congress Forged the First Constitution.

As the United States celebrates its semiquincentennial, popular memory naturally turns toward the triumphant moments in the Revolutionary War—moments like George Washington crossing the Delaware, the British surrender at Saratoga, and the decisive victory at Yorktown. Yet some of the greatest chapters in the story of America are not the Patriots’ victories, but the survival of their fragile experiment in the dark autumns of the late 1770s.

What factors motivated the delegates in York, Pennsylvania, to move toward adopting a national constitution rather than remaining a loose association of states?
