I want to learn about US politics around the time of the nation's founding.
Ideally I'd want a single edition containing the Constitution, amendments, Federalist and Anti-federalist papers (or at least the highlights of both sets). Does such a thing exist, ideally in .epub format?
Check out the Constitutional Rights Foundation: They have tons of documents on that kind of stuff.

surprisingly, barnes&noble publishes pretty much exactly this

To add, I'm a Britfag---are the anti-Federalist papers worth a look, or is there a reason they seem to be rather less well-known and revered as their Federalist counterparts? Are they more than just a historical curiosity?

Yes.
Both sides of the debate shaped the foundations of the American political system and more or less represent the major political factions in the country today.

Half of this.

The anti-federalists were right about a lot of things
For one, they were right that Hamilton was a slimy authoritarian faggot
Just listen to Hamilton and you'll be gucc.
