Lou Tullio: A Real Erie Guy is the most comprehensive book to date on Erie, Pennsylvania's 6-term Mayor, Louis J. Tullio (1916-1990). Published by the Jefferson Educational Society, this book - written by Cory Vaillancourt - offers a revealing look at the life and times of one of the most significant and heavily mythologized politicians in the history of Erie.
A meeting and debate between two of the most controversial founding fathers, Jefferson and Hamilton, center on the topics most relevant to their day and to ours: State versus Federal authority in government, the framing of the Constitution and its interpretation, the establishment of the First National Bank and its constitutionality, and the people’s voice in government.
