Summary "Civil Government for Common Schools" by Henry C. Northam is a manual for public instruction written during the late 19th century, specifically aimed at the educational context of the State of New York. This book serves as a comprehensive guide to civil government, detailing both the theoretical aspects of political science and the practical applications of governance, particularly how it functions at local and state levels. It is intended as an educational resource for students in public schools, helping them understand the structure and operation of government officials and their roles. The content of "Civil Government for Common Schools" is structured as a series of questions and answers designed to familiarize students with the intricacies of government in New York State, from the local school district up to the federal level.
