We need more Trumans
I just finished David McCoullough's biography of President Harry S Truman (the S stands for nothing, just S), and think anyone who reads the book will come away the richer for the experience.

Truman was the everyman president, who transformed himself and the country through decency, determination and simple nose-to-the-grindstone hard work. And he was a pretty good piano player to boot.
