New York Times bestselling author and humorist A.J. Jacobs is back with another chronicle of an immersive experiment. As recounted in his new book, “The Year of Living Constitutionally,” Jacobs spent a year exploring the language and history of our nation’s founding document and amendments, sometimes with a musket in tow.
