Download or read book Truman written by David McCullough and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2003-08-20 with total page 1409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pulitzer Prize–winning biography of Harry S. Truman, whose presidency included momentous events from the atomic bombing of Japan to the outbreak of the Cold War and the Korean War, told by America’s beloved and distinguished historian. The life of Harry S. Truman is one of the greatest of American stories, filled with vivid characters—Roosevelt, Churchill, Stalin, Eleanor Roosevelt, Bess Wallace Truman, George Marshall, Joe McCarthy, and Dean Acheson—and dramatic events. In this riveting biography, acclaimed historian David McCullough not only captures the man—a more complex, informed, and determined man than ever before imagined—but also the turbulent times in which he rose, boldly, to meet unprecedented challenges. The last president to serve as a living link between the nineteenth and the twentieth centuries, Truman’s story spans the raw world of the Missouri frontier, World War I, the powerful Pendergast machine of Kansas City, the legendary Whistle-Stop Campaign of 1948, and the decisions to drop the atomic bomb, confront Stalin at Potsdam, send troops to Korea, and fire General MacArthur. Drawing on newly discovered archival material and extensive interviews with Truman’s own family, friends, and Washington colleagues, McCullough tells the deeply moving story of the seemingly ordinary “man from Missouri” who was perhaps the most courageous president in our history.

Download or read book Da Bonemon written by Bob Harrison and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2002-02-13 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A killer has returned. Nearly two decades after a series of murders, bodies are again appearing in the Appalachians. Special Agent Truman Eisenhauer arrives in the rugged mountains bordering the Great Smoky Mountains National Park where he and local sheriff Bill Watson investigate the latest bizarre murder. Theories abound about the strange, ritualistic murders, but Eisenhauer has his own ideasideas that dont turn to the supernatural. Confronting the mystifying had become his specialty at the FBI, but Eisenhauer was unprepared for what waited for him in the backwoods of North Carolina. Virtually nothing fit his preconceived notions of the area or of crime itself. Both an obvious pattern and an obvious signature existed for this serial killer, but that helped neither he nor Bill Watson in their initial pursuit of the killer. It was not until Eisenhauer began to confront his own past that the glimmer of an answer appeareda solution he did not want to find. Set the rich and storied woods of rural America and populated with a cast of just slightly off-center characters, Da Bonemon is a novel of mystery, horror, and comedy, and is definitely not a book for younger readers or for those people who are offended by sex and violence.

Book Synopsis Harry S. Truman by : Robert H. Ferrell
Download or read book Harry S. Truman written by Robert H. Ferrell and published by University of Missouri Press. This book was released on 2013-07-22 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few U.S. presidents have captured the imagination of the American people as has Harry S. Truman, “the man from Missouri.” In this major new biography, Robert H. Ferrell, widely regarded as an authority on the thirty-third president, challenges the popular characterization of Truman as a man who rarely sought the offices he received, revealing instead a man who—with modesty, commitment to service, and basic honesty—moved with method and system toward the presidency. Truman was ambitious in the best sense of the word. His powerful commitment to service was accompanied by a remarkable shrewdness and an exceptional ability to judge people. He regarded himself as a consummate politician, a designation of which he was proud. While in Washington, he never succumbed to the “Potomac fever” that swelled the heads of so many officials in that city. A scrupulously honest man, Truman exhibited only one lapse when, at the beginning of 1941, he padded his Senate payroll by adding his wife and later his sister. From his early years on the family farm through his pivotal decision to use the atomic bomb in World War II, Truman’s life was filled with fascinating events. Ferrell’s exhaustive research offers new perspectives on many key episodes in Truman’s career, including his first Senate term and the circumstances surrounding the Truman Doctrine and the Marshall Plan. In addition, Ferrell taps many little-known sources to relate the intriguing story of the machinations by which Truman gained the vice presidential nomination in 1944, a position which put him a heartbeat away from the presidency. No other historian has ever demonstrated such command over the vast amounts of material that Robert Ferrell brings to bear on the unforgettable story of Truman’s life. Based upon years of research in the Truman Library and the study of many never-before-used primary sources, Harry S. Truman is destined to become the authoritative account of the nation’s favorite president.

Download or read book Maximalist written by Stephen Sestanovich and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2014-10-14 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American foreign policy since World War II has long been seen primarily as a story of strong and successful alliances, domestic consensus, and continuity from one adminstration to the next. Why then have so many presidents left office condemned for their foreign policy record? In his fresh and compelling history of America's rise to dominance, Stephen Sestanovich makes clear that U.S. diplomacy has always stirred controversy, both at home and abroad. He shows how successive adminstrations have struggled to find new solutions, alternating between bold "maximalist" strategies and retrenchment efforts to downsize America's role. Almost all our presidents emerge from this vivid retelling in a sharp and unexpected light.
