Description:"This ambitious, well-written book will be a useful resource for scholars... an excellent overview... a fine, readable introduction that presents its analysis in a straightforward manner free from ideological baggage." --Congress & The Presidency"A refreshingly unorthodox narrative.

Strongly recommended." -- Samuel McSeveney, Vanderbilt University"Ballard Campbell has synthesized an amazing range of material: federal, state and even local studies, from history, political science, economics, and assorted other specialized studies.

Even better, it provides a coherent explanation of why the state grew so large." --Richard Jensen, University of Illinois-Chicago"His overview(chapter 2) should be a compulsory assignment for any seminar on modern political culture... " -- The Journal of American History"Campbell's book is a marvelous multidisciplinary synthesis that builds on the findings of historians of national, state, and local government, along with those of economists and political scientists, to provide a coherent account of the rise of modern American governing structures." --Journal of Interdisciplinary History"The book should be useful in the classroom, even for freshmen classes in U.S. history and government." -- American Historical Review"Readable, and refreshingly unorthodox, Campbell provides a coherent explanation of how and why government has become so large.
