The G.I. Bill and the Making of the Greatest Generation
Drawing on extensive interviews and surveys with hundreds of members of the        "e;greatest generation,"e; Suzanne Mettler finds that by treating veterans as        first-class citizens and in granting advanced education, the Bill inspired them to        become the active participants thanks to whom memberships in civic organizations        soared and levels of political activity peaked. Mettler probes how this landmark law        produced such a civic renaissance. Most fundamentally, she discovers, it        communicated to veterans that government was for and about people like them, and        they responded in turn. In our current age of rising inequality and declining civic        engagement, Soldiers to Citizens offers critical lessons about how public programs        can make a difference.
