Klappentext This book tells the story of The Veterans of Future Wars (VFW), a student movement that attracted widespread support in a short few months in 1936.

It focused American attention on the bonus issue, which had been a political issue for many years. Inhaltsverzeichnis 1 Prologue Chapter 2 Chapter 1. A Bonus of Their Own Chapter 3 Chapter 2.
