Local Government and Finance in Minnesota
This is more than a monograph on local government in Minnesota. It represents the fruition of years of labor and of thought in the field of American local government by one of its best interpreters. Minnesota furnishes the rich mine in which Professor Anderson digs for significant data. The broad scope of the study is indicated by the three primary parts into which his treatment of local government is divided: (1) structure, (2) finance, (3) functions. Throughout, a nice balance has been maintained between data, generalizations, and principles of readjustment. The emphasis in the book is not that of an advocate, but of a scholarly and practical leader.
