Summary:
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.
