Few U.S. presidents have captured the imagination of the American people as has Harry S. Truman, "the man from Missouri." In this major 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 moved with method and system toward the presidency.
