Affection and trust

Affection and trust : the personal correspondence of Harry S. Truman and Dean Acheson, 1953-1971, 343 pgs.

Harry Truman is still my favorite president and reading this LARGE collection of letters between him and Dean Acheson (his Secretary of State) is quite wonderful. The two men had a mutual admiration society for each other and thus the letters reveal a lot of personal details and thoughts. The title of this book says it all. Wonderful.
