Chronicle of America's oldest major veteran's organization of the VFW.
This first full-length story of the VFW is a newsy insider's view. From
the founding in 1899 through 1990, it seems that no personage or fact
has been omitted.
There are lists of officers and members, with short biographies of
national commanders, as well as lists of the many awards presented.
Coverage is roughly chronological, and the author has succeeded in
keeping this compendium of facts interesting. This is not a critical
history, nor was it meant to be. Even without documentation, this is the
place to begin. All libraries should consider for their VFW member
patrons. -- Edward Gibson, Jones Me morial Lib., Lynchburg, Va.
Beautiful condition. Slight factory flaw lower left corner. Interior
crisp and clean, looks un-read. Excellent gift idea for the military
veteran in your life.
