Abstract:
Miss Stone details in this very rewarding volume the inspirational story of the American College of Life Underwriters. Her documentary presentation ranges from just fifty years ago when the sign "no peddlers, solicitors, or insurance agents allowed" was frequently seen, to the present when the C.L.U. stands alongside doctors, lawyers, C.P.A.s, and the like, The idea of C.L.U. began in the early 1900s, developed by the tireless efforts of such men as Solomon Huebner and David McCahan and leading insurance executives, and finally the dream came true in 1927 with the founding of the American College of Life Underwriters.
