2020., Dover Publications, Inc. Call No: HI-INT 975.3 DIC Edition: Dover edition. Availability:1 of 1 At Location(s) Summary Note: "Forty-five thousand World War I veterans invaded President Herbert Hoover's Washington D.C. in the Depression summer of 1932 demanding payment of the bonus they had been promised eight years earlier for their wartime service. The "bonus bill" was defeated in the Senate, and the Army, led by Army Chief of Staff Gen. Douglas MacArthur, routed the invading bonus army with tanks on the streets of Washington. The Bonus Army by Paul Dickson and Thomas B. Allen, which garnered fabulous reviews when first published in 2004, is based on exhaustive research including interviews with the last surviving witnesses from 1932. As Dickson and Allen make clear the summer of the 1932 Bonus Army ultimately proved to play a crucial role in American history as it paved the way for the passage, in 1944, of the GI Bill of Rights, legislation which transformed American society and more than anything else created the American middle class of the postwar years"--
