Model government charters : a city, county, regional, state, and federal handbook

The United States federal government is the oldest in existence. However, the exact workings of the various levels of the United States government are a mystery to many. Because the basis for each level's operations is the charter that formed it, this volume uses model charters to provide an explanation of why American governments work.
