Two
Americans by William Lee Miller EPUB

Harry Truman and Dwight Eisenhower, consecutive presidents of the United
States, were Midwesterners alike in many ways - except that they also sharply differed.

Born within six years
of each other (Truman in 1884, Eisenhower in 1890), they came from small towns in the Missouri-Mississippi River Valley
- in the midst of cows and wheat, pigs and corn, and grain elevators. Both were grandsons of farmers and sons of
forceful mothers, and of fathers who knew failure; both were lower middle class, received public-school educations, and
were brought up in low-church Protestant denominations.

William Lee Miller interweaves Truman's and
Eisenhower's life stories, which then also becomes the story of their nation as it rose to great power. They had
contrasting experiences in the Great War - Truman, the haberdasher to be, led men in battle; Eisenhower, the supreme
commander to be, did not. Between the wars, Truman was the quintessential politician, and Eisenhower the thoroughgoing
anti-politician. Truman knew both the successes and woes of the public life, while Eisenhower was sequestered in the
peacetime Army.

Then, in the wartime 1940s, these two men were abruptly lifted above dozens of others to
become leaders of the great national efforts. Miller describes the hostile maneuvering and bickering at the moment in
1952-53 when power was to be handed from one to the other and somebody had to decide which hat to wear and who greeted
whom. As president, each coped with McCarthyism, the tormenting problems of race, and the great issues of the emerging
Cold War. They brought the United States into a new pattern of world responsibility while being the first Americans to
hold in their hands the awesome power of weapons capable of destroying civilization. Reading their story is a reminder
of the modern American story, of ordinary men dealing with extraordinary power.
