More Description

CITIZENSHIP 1928 reviews the War Department Technical Manual 2000-25, Citizenship. This manual was originally authorized on 30 November 1928 by the US Government War Department. It was printed in April of 1929 by the US Government Printing Office. Democratic members of Congress believed it contained controversial material, leading to the manual being recalled and withdrawn within four years of publication. The main discussion in CITIZENSHIP 1928 focuses on the definition of Democracy as it changes during the 19th century. Consideration of the Congressional Record and newspaper excerpts help explain why the War Department removed the manual from civilian and serviceman training classes in 1932. A complete copy of the original manual, reformatted for easier reading, is included in the book. This is the third edition with minor typo corrections, edited for ePub usage.
