I love Truman. I even named a child after him. So it was nice to read what is essentially the transcript of an oral interview with him. Because although McCullough's biography of Truman is a must-read, you don't get Truman's own voice the way you do here.
Unfortunately, the book was marred by the author's weird hostilities (apparently, the interviews were originally conducted as part of an ill-fated television script and the author spares no animosity towards any of the other participants). But this is still a great resource for the Truman fan.
BestBooks is a record of all of the books that I have read since November 2004, with brief descriptions and reviews.
