Harry S. Truman – Bringing Independence To The White House

November 2, 2015 @ 7:00 PM - 8:30 PM

Election of 1948

Dewey Defeats Harry TrumanWhen Harry S. Truman left office he was considered a failed President. Wags said, “To err is Truman!”

A half century later, conventional wisdom was that Truman was a great President.

Which statement is true? Or does the truth lie somewhere in between?

This fast-moving and fascinating multimedia presentation will examine the life of the Man From Independence. We will look at his family background, his long love affair with his beloved Bess, and the unique personality traits that made him into a memorable and distinctly original man and President.
