The whole American cause was riding on their success, without which all hope for independence would have been dashed and the Declaration of Independence would have amounted to little more than words on paper. Especially in our own tumultuous time, 1776 is powerful testimony to how much is owed to a rare few in that brave, founding epoch, and what a miracle it was that things turned out as they did. Located on Philadelphia's historic Independence Mall, the National Constitution Center is an independent, nonpartisan, nonprofit organization dedicated to increasing public understanding of the U.S. Constitution and its relevance to Americans' daily lives.
