The "Federalist Papers" were published by A. & J. McLean in 1788. Several people contributed to the writing of the papers, some under "Ghost Writer" names (pseudo names, not their real names). The known contributing authors were: * Alexander Hamilton (Secretary of the Treasury) - 51 articles: nos. 1, 6-9, 11-13, 15-17, 21-36, 59-61, and 65-85 * James Madison (4th president of the USA) 29 articles: nos. 10, 14, 18-20, 37-58, and 62-63 * John Jay (1st Chief Justis of the US Supreme Court) - 5 articles: 2-5 and 64 Each of the pseudo names they chose were people who were instrumental in the establishment (or maintaining) of the Roman Republic; Cato, Brutus, Publius and some letter writers (to news papers) selected names for the same reasons.
