Sobre este artículo
Boldly signed on half title page by Harry S. Truman (aka "Give 'Em Hell Harry"). Book and Dust Jacket are in beautiful condition. Clean text. Unclipped ($3.00). Protected by Brodart book jacket cover.
Truman is one of our great Presidents. In 1959 former President Truman gave a series of lectures and seminars on government at Columbia University. "The book is a transcript of what he had to tell them about the Presidency, the Constitution and demagoguery more poignant and human than Truman's official memoirs" (New York Times). President Truman had a sign on his desk, "The Buck Stops Here."

Truman had been vice president for 82 days when President Roosevelt died on April 12, 1945. Truman, presiding over the Senate, as usual, had just adjourned the session for the day and was preparing to have a drink in House Speaker Sam Rayburn's office when he received an urgent message to go immediately to the White House, where Eleanor Roosevelt told him that her husband had died after a massive cerebral hemorrhage. Truman asked her if there was anything he could do for her; she replied, "Is there anything we can do for you? For you are the one in trouble now!" He was sworn in as president at 7:09 pm in the West Wing of the White House, by Chief Justice Harlan F. Stone.
