The roots of republicanism

Madam, - I am writing to congratulate David Adams on his excellent column. His piece last Friday on republicanism was especially thought-provoking. Indeed, he seems to have reflected on the subject with greater depth than many who would call themselves republicans. - Yours, etc.,
