In The Gentle Legions, Richard Carter analyzed the large voluntary health organizations in America. He set out to analyze the impact of this “humanitarian and social movement” and the struggle between the health organization movement to maintain independent campaigns and the United Fund movement to incorporate these organizations into a single community campaign. The issues he identified in the late 1950s are still major issues today. Carter believes that voluntary activity is crucial to American democracy.
