This is the authorized edition which contains the complete subject matter of the classic works on Parliamentary procedure.
"Where there is no law, but every man does what is right in his own eyes, there is the least of real liberty."
Robert's Rules Of Order by Henry M. Robert III is a document outlining parliamentary procedure. This modern day classic was first published in 1876 and has seen a number of revisions over the years.
Robert's Rules Of Order is a true book of value, a classic that lives in an era of timeless distinction.
"It is difficult to find another branch of knowledge where a small amount of study produces such great results in increased efficiency in a country where the people rule, as in parliamentary law."
In 1863 when Robert was chosen to preside over a church meeting and, although he accepted the task, felt that he did not have the necessary knowledge of proper procedure.
In his later work as an active member of several organizations, Robert discovered that members from different areas of the country had very different views regarding what the proper parliamentary rules were, and these conflicting views hampered the organizations in their work. He eventually became convinced of the need for a new manual on the subject, one which would enable many organizations to adopt the same set of rules.
