The Greatest Generation

In The Greatest Generation, a magnificent testament to a national and her people, TV anchor and author, Tom Brokaw tells the stories of individual men and women who came of age during the Great Depression and the Second World War and went on to build modern America. From military heroes to community leaders to ordinary citizens, these people served their country with valor, then came home and transformed it.

The 2004 edition updates on stories from the original book (printed in 1998) and includes a DVD of the NBC television special that inspired Brokaw to write this book. Hardcover; 412 pages.
