Four Aspects Of Civic Duty (1907)

By William Howard Taft and Howard Taft William

Book Overview

""Four Aspects of Civic Duty"" is a book written by William Howard Taft, the 27th President of the United States. Published in 1907, the book explores four important aspects of civic duty: the duty to vote, the duty to obey the law, the duty to pay taxes, and the duty to serve in the military. Taft argues that these four duties are essential for the success of any democracy, and that citizens who neglect them are failing in their responsibilities as members of society.In the book, Taft examines each of these duties in detail, discussing their historical and philosophical roots, as well as their practical implications for contemporary American society. He also addresses common objections to these duties, such as concerns about voter fraud or government corruption, and offers solutions for addressing these issues.Overall, ""Four Aspects of Civic Duty"" is a thoughtful and insightful exploration of the responsibilities that come with citizenship in a democratic society. Taft's arguments remain relevant today, and the book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the rights and responsibilities of citizenship.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
