The call of the convention at Philadelphia in 1787, brought together many diverse men. They were men of various ages, careers, family background, education and means. The only commonalities they shared were that each had some experience in public service, and each enjoyed a reputation that was beyond reproach. Clinton Rossiter’s, 1787: THE GRAND CONVENTION, is an excellent source for details concerning the delegates to the convention.
