American Government is a free online textbook provided by the Independence Hall Association, a Pennsylvania nonprofit organization whose mission is to educate the public about the Revolutionary and Colonial eras of American history, as well as Philadelphia generally.

What is the purpose of government?
What types of governments are there? What is a democracy?
Where is the center of governmental power? Is it national or local?
Is America's government too big? Too small? Constantly shifting with the times?
What are the rights and responsibilities of each American citizen?
