Written by George Seay Wheat and published in 1919, the book provides a comprehensive overview of the Legion's founding, its early leaders and members, and its mission to serve the needs of American veterans.Wheat begins by describing the social and political climate following the end of the war, including the challenges faced by returning soldiers and the growing sense of patriotism and national unity. He then provides a detailed account of the Legion's formation, tracing its roots to a meeting of American officers in Paris in 1918 and its subsequent establishment in the United States.The book also explores the Legion's early activities, including its efforts to lobby for veterans' benefits and its role in promoting Americanism and civic engagement. Wheat highlights the organization's commitment to community service, including its support for education, youth programs, and other charitable causes.Throughout the book, Wheat draws on a range of primary sources, including interviews with Legion members and leaders, as well as official documents and correspondence. He also provides a number of photographs and illustrations to help bring the history of the American Legion to life.Overall, The Story of the American Legion is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of veterans' organizations in the United States, as well as the broader social and political context of the post-World War I era.The Birth Of The Legion, The First Of A Series To Be Issued After Each Annual National Convention.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
