Few US presidents have captured the imagination of the American people as has Harry S. Truman, the man from Missouri. In this biography, Ferrell challenges the popular characterisation of Truman as a modest man who rarely sought the offices he received, revealing instead a quick-witted politician whose skill and honest commitment to service paved the road to the nation's highest office.
