Summary "The Government Class Book" by Andrew W. Young is an educational text written in the mid-19th century. It is designed to instruct young people in the principles of constitutional government and the rights and duties of citizens. The book seeks to emphasize the importance of political education among students, aiming to equip them with the knowledge necessary to participate effectively in a democratic society. The opening of the book introduces the author’s view on the necessity of political knowledge for self-governance, highlighting that many citizens grow up without understanding the principles of their government or their responsibilities as citizens. Young argues against the neglect of political education in schools, urging that knowledge of constitutional rights and duties should be a fundamental part of the educational curriculum. He aims to provide accessible insights into civil government, establishing a foundation for the youth to appreciate and uphold their democratic freedoms and responsibilities.
