About the book
As the official handbook of the Federal Government, "The United States Government Manual 1991/92" provides comprehensive information on the agencies of the legislative, judicial, and executive branches. The Manual also includes information on quasi-official agencies, international organizations in which the United States participates, and various boards, commissions, and committees. The book presents a list of principal officials, a summary statement of each agency's purpose and role in the Federal Government, a brief history of the agency (including its legislative or executive authority), and a description of its programs and activities. The final section provides information on consumer activities, contracts and grants, employment, publications, and many other areas of public interest.
