About This Item

New York: Public Affairs, 2006. First Edition. First Printing. Hardcover. Very good/Very good. 313, illus., map, notes, index. The story of a gilded generation of young men from the zenith of privilege: a Rockefeller, a Taft, the son of the head of the Union Pacific Railroad, a son of J. P. Morgan's leading partner. Most were students at Yale University in 1916. They were determined to be first into the conflict, leading the way ahead of America's declaration that it would join the Great War in Europe.
