The life of Harry S. Truman is one of the greatest of American stories, filled with vivid characters -- Roosevelt, Churchill, Stalin, Eleanor Roosevelt, Bess Wallace Truman, George Marshall, Joe McCarthy, and Dean Acheson -- and dramatic events. In this riveting biography, acclaimed historian David McCullough not only captures the man -- a more complex, informed, and determined man than ever before imagined -- but also the turbulent times in which he rose, boldly, to meet unprecedented challenges. The last president to serve as a living link between the nineteenth and the twentieth centuries, Truman s story spans the raw world of the Missouri frontier, World War I, the powerful Pendergast machine of Kansas City, the legendary Whistle-Stop Campaign of 1948, and the decisions to drop the atomic bomb, confront Stalin at Potsdam, send troops to Korea, and fire General MacArthur. Drawing on newly discovered archival material and extensive interviews with Truman s own family, friends, and Washington colleagues, McCullough tells the deeply moving story of the seemingly ordinary "man from Missouri" who was perhaps the most courageous president in our history.
David McCullough has twice received the Pulitzer Prize, for Truman and John Adams, and twice received the National Book Award, for The Path Between the Seas and Mornings on Horseback; His other widely praised books are 1776, Brave Companions, The Great Bridge, and The Johnstown Flood. He has been honored with the National Book Foundation Distinguished Contribution to American Letters Award, the National Humanities Medal, and the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
杜魯門是屌絲齣身的總統,沒上過大學,農民齣身,當過兵,和人閤開過服裝飾品店,一輩子都在為錢而操心,對朋友忠心,說話滿嘴跑火車得罪瞭不少文化人,如果不是小羅斯福的逝世而由副總統繼位,他自己能當上總統的可能性微乎其微。然,一輩子大風大浪,下令投原子彈,打冷戰,打韓戰,馬歇爾計劃援助歐洲。 雖然本書得瞭普利策奬,文字還是有些囉嗦。 推薦。
評分DM寫truman這是絕配!倆人的質地也挺匹配的。就是非常囉嗦非常長..美國群眾吃這套popular history的範兒...HST也是個絕頂聰明的人 和FDR完全不一樣的聰明。不過他毀掉瞭Stevenson的機會 老瞭還略糊塗。
評分One of the most interesting US Presidents of the 20th Century. A simple little big man; a great man with ultimate internal security. Learned a great deal. My 1000-pager of the year. Such a joyful read. "The one thing new in this world is the history you don't know." "Intense feeling often obscures truth."
評分杜魯門1952年離任時,民意支持率跌至24%。艾森豪威爾兩屆任內從沒請他迴去坐坐;肯尼迪寜願請教時任杜魯門國務卿的Acheson也不會去找他。大傢心中他隻是一介農民,不過是因為FDR突然離世纔被推上最高政治舞颱。直到92年 Truman齣版,大眾纔意識到What a TRUE man Truman was. 書還因此得瞭普利策奬。能讓一個偉人再活過來,是多少史學傢的夢想呢。Finished on 7/3/2014

大二的时候,在图书馆看到了这本书。读完之后感慨良多,杜鲁门是一个很平凡的美国人,33岁的时候还在家乡的农场做厂主,后来参加一战由此开启了不平凡的一生。作者的叙述很祥瞻,文笔幽默,我读过很多人物传记,还是认为这是最好的。所以目前在读第二遍。

評分我以前看过杜鲁门传,但是那套书后来找不到了。 只是记得作者是得过普利策奖的。 杜鲁门是一个很可爱的人。他相信所有的矛盾都是由误会产生的。也就是说他相信所有人都是好人,都是善良的。大家产生了误会,于是就会有分歧和矛盾。 杜鲁门担任参议员,在党内选举成为罗斯福的...
評分人首先他要优秀 然后出生在一个合适的时代,杜鲁门,出现在最伟大之一的罗斯福总统之后,他也有优秀的能力,但是刚开始他的光辉被罗斯福远远遮盖,但是他依旧发挥他自己的特色,努力,善良,执着,成为美国人新的骄傲。如果当时罗斯福没有正好去世,如果当时不是因为乱世,也许...
