The Essentials of American Government (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from The Essentials of American Government
IT is somewhat presumptuous to attempt to reduce American Government to its essential principles. The subject is difficult - more or less technical and quite beyond the compass of any one book. Therefore, in writing the present volume, the author cites many books in which the matter under immediate consideration is discussed at length. The rule of rules for the student of American government is M ultum, not Multa. There is peril, if only the principle be considered, that what knowledge is gained will be an acquaintance with abstractions; if the ex ample, or illustration alone is considered, the peril is of a memory of facts more or less tem porary, or isolated. Government is essentially organic in nature and must be studied as an organism.
