On June 10, 1940, one week after Dunkirk, thirty American civic leaders published a nationwide newspaper statement that urged the United States to declare war immediately on Germany. This 'Summons to Speak Out' was the first clear call for war by reputable persons. The Warhawks is the first book-lenth study of the Century Group, as these private citizens were initially known, and of the later Fight For Freedom Committee.
