CITIZENSHIP 1928" reviews the War Department Technical Manual 2000-25, Citizenship. The manual was first authorized on November 30, 1928, by the U.S. Government War Department and printed in April 1929 by the U.S. Government Printing Office. Democratic members of Congress believed it contained controversial material, leading to the manual's recall and withdrawal within 4 years of its publication. The main discussion in "CITIZENSHIP 1928" focuses on how the definition of democracy evolved during the 19th century. Examining the Congressional Record and newspaper excerpts helps explain why the War Department removed the manual from civilian and serviceman training classes in 1932. A fully formatted, easier-to-read copy of the original manual is included in the book. Jim Tippins is from Daytona Beach and is a retired US Air Force Officer. His engineering career has supported space launches from Vandenberg Air Force Base, Cape Canaveral SFS, and Kennedy Space Center.
