The 'Checks and Balances: The Three Branches of the American Government' by Daniel E. Brannen is an in-depth exploration of the United States government's structure and the interplay between its legislative, executive, and judicial branches. This three-volume set delves into the historical development of the U.S. Constitution, the distinct roles and responsibilities of each branch, and the system of checks and balances that ensures no single branch can dominate the others.
