Hugh Thompson's account of his time in France demonstrates his keen eye for detail and his penchant for philosophy. Thompson combines the fast-paced prose of the Jazz Age with the passionate observations of an engaged intellectual. Originally serialized in the Chattanooga Times in 1934, this newly edited version a…
Who Are These People
The temptation of historians and political scientists is to codify a president's actions, rather than analyze the frequently personal causes behind them. People are so difficult to judge. Some holders of the nation's highest office are nearly impossible to analyze personally, others identify themselves or their close friends do so. Of the presidents from Wilson through Eisenhower, Wilson is an easy judgment, the three Republican presidents of the…

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

Truman's Place in History
Harry S. Truman has been gone for more than seventeen years, dying in a Kansas City hospital on the day after Christmas, 1972, and the public judgment of this president of the United States is now highly favorable-so much so as to constitute adulation. But the biographies as they have appeared over the years have been uncertain in their judgment. Books by several reporters and professional writers, together with a friend, a relative, and a politi…

Peace in Their Time
Pearl Harbor and the Revisionists
It was perhaps inevitable that after the Second World War, as after the war of 1914–18, there should appear in the United States a school of historians questioning the purposes of the war and the motives of the wartime statesmen. The cost of both world wars, in human lives and in physical resources, was very high; and it was only natural that some individuals should question such expenditure. Yet the new school of ‘revisionism’ appearing after th…

Woodrow Wilson
It is now thirty-two years since the death of Woodrow Wilson, one hundred years since his birth, and still the place in history of this Southerner who became president of Princeton University and later President of the United States remains somewhat uncertain. Wilson will rank among the great American presidents, but precisely where his reputation will come to rest is at present difficult to say. His public life has been the subject of intense sc…
