The United States Constitution: A Graphic Adaptation “Hennessey interweaves the Framers’ intent with contemporary battles over constitutional law, while McConnell colors history with masterful strokes. A civics lesson no one should miss.” -Alexander Naza Ryan, The Village Voice.

Aaron McConnell’s big project is coming out this Fall. ICV2 has the story:

“First out is The United States Constitution: A Graphic Adaptation, a 160-page full color volume, which will be released in October in both paperback ($16.95) and hardcover ($35.00) editions. Hennessey and McConnell use sequential storytelling to breathe life into the basic document of the American government, methodically proceeding article by article, amendment by amendment to trace the evolution of a document that once sanctioned slavery, denied voting rights to women, and turned a blind eye to state governments’ oppression of minorities, into a bulwark of protection for the rights of all.”
