| adam_text | ( The Magna Carta is revered around the world as
the founding document of Western liberty* Its
principles--even its language---can be found in
our Bill of Rights and in the Constitution* But
what was this strange charter and how did it gain
such legendary status?
Dan Jones takes us back to the turbulent year
of 12,15, when, beset by foreign crises and cornered
by a growing domestic rebellion, King John reluc-
tantly agreed to fix his seal to a document that
would change the course of history* At the time
of its creation the JVlagna Carta was just a peace
treaty drafted by a group of rebel barons who
were tired of the king s high taxes, arbitrary jus-
tice, and endless foreign wars* The fragile peace
it established would last only two months, but its
principles have reverberated over the centuries*
Jones s riveting narrative follows the story of
the JVlagna Carta s creation, its failure, and the
war that subsequently engulfed England, and
charts the high points in its unexpected afterlife*
Reissued by King John s successors it protected
the Church, banned unlawful imprisonment, and
set limits to the exercise of royal power* It estab-
lished the principle that taxation must be tied to
representation and paved the way for the creation
of Parliament*
In 1776 American patriots, inspired by
that long-ago defiance, dared to pick up arms
against another English king and to demand even
more far-reaching rights* We think of the Dec-
laration of Independence as our founding docu-
ment but those who drafted it had their eye on
the JVlagna Carta*,
