This 1933 edition of “The New American Government and Its Work” by James T. Young offers a fascinating glimpse into the political landscape of the United States during the tumultuous years of the Great Depression. Published just months after Franklin D. Roosevelt’s inauguration, this book provided contemporary insights into the sweeping changes ushered in by the New Deal programs. Young, a respected political scientist and educator, aimed to educate the public on the evolving roles and responsibilities of the federal government in response to the economic crisis. This copy bears the marks of its age, with water stains and wear on the cover, but the text itself remains largely intact, offering a time-capsule of political thought from a pivotal era in American history. For collectors and students of 20th-century American politics and government, this volume holds immense value as a primary source that captures the spirit of reform and adaptation that defined Roosevelt’s presidency.
