U.S. government publication : ideological development and institutional politics from the founding to 1970
"This book examines the forces that have deflected U.S. government publication from becoming the public enterprise conceived by Congress in the nineteenth century. John Walters discusses concepts deeply embedded in the American political consciousness and their inhibitive effort on the production, distribution, preservation, and even the quality of U.S. government documents."--BOOK JACKET
