"A Time of Scandal: Charles R. Forbes, Warren G. Harding, and the Making of the Veterans Bureau" is a historical account of the corruption that plagued the Veterans Bureau in the 1920s. The book specifically focuses on the career of Charles R. Forbes, who was appointed the director of the Veterans Bureau by President Warren G. Harding. The book details Forbes's rise from a seemingly obscure individual to a powerful government official and ultimately documents his fall from grace as he was accused of corruption and eventually convicted of fraud. The text provides a detailed portrait of Forbes's personal life, his professional career, and his involvement in the scandals that rocked the Harding administration. The book also explores the broader context of the 1920s, including the era of political scandals, the growth of government bureaucracy, and the changing public perception of government and corruption.
