4) Citizen soldier: a life of Harry S. Truman

The dramatic, pulse-pounding story of Harry Truman’s first four months in office, when this unlikely president had to take on Germany, Japan, Stalin, and the atomic bomb, with the fate of the world hanging in the balance. Heroes are often defined as ordinary characters who get thrust into extraordinary circumstances, and through courage and a dash of luck, cement their place in history. Chosen as FDR’s fourth term Vice President for his well-praised...

5) Tumultuous years: the presidency of Harry S. Truman, 1949-1953

When Harry S. Truman left the White House in 1953, his reputation was in ruins. Tarred by corruption scandals and his controversial decision to drop nuclear bombs on Japan, he ended his second term with an abysmal approval rating, his presidency widely considered a failure. But this dim view of Truman ignores his crucial role in the 20th century and his enduring legacy, as celebrated historian Aida D. Donald explains in this incisive biography of...

When Harry S. Truman left the White House in 1953, his reputation was in ruins. Tarred by corruption scandals and his decision to drop nuclear bombs on Japan, he was considered by many a failed president. But in Citizen Soldier, Aida D. Donald revises that image with a penetrating portrait showing that Truman deserves recognition as the principal architect of the American postwar world.
