The
American Congress provides the most insightful treatment of
congressional politics available in an undergraduate text.
Informed by the authors' Capitol Hill experience and
nationally-recognized scholarship, The American Congress presents
a crisp introduction to all major features of Congress: its party
and committee systems, leadership, and voting and floor activity. The
American Congress has the most in-depth discussions of the place
of the president, the courts, and interest groups in congressional
policy making available in a text. And the online version of The
American Congress is always the most up-to-date textbook on any
aspect of American politics.
The
online version of The American Congress is free to
instructors, students, and interested others. Use the links below to

additional reading on congressional politics, to our test bank, and to
