We love to talk about the U.S. government. We argue about government. We praise
government and we decry it. We do these things because we are free. Our
government does great things. Whether those things are done for you or to you
depends on your point of view. The more you know about our government, the
clearer your point of view will become.

the highest level of American government. A good book on Congress should
explain, in as simple terms as possible, this complicated legislative
process.

federal employment is also one of the most sought-after careers among
job seekers. You need to know where to look for these jobs (online and
off), how to apply for them and what the qualifications are. Any good
book on government jobs will tell you those things.

By the bizarre process called the
"electoral college," America has selected 43 people to serve
as Commander and Chief of the most powerful military on Earth, the
leader of the free world, the president of the United States. Whether we
viewed them as gifted and inspiring leaders, or bobbling buffoons, each
president, in his own way, made history.
