I have read a bunch: JFK, Abe, Washington, Teddy, FDR, Adams, but I thought this was the best overall analysis of a man and what made him tick. When you consider all that happened during his watch: (Big 3 conference, Atomic Bomb, Labor Strikes, Recognition of Israel, Marshall plan, Firing MacArthur, Red Scare, Truman Doctrine, China falling to communists, the Whistlestop Campaign,Korea, etc) and the fact that this was a man who was simply a farmer before WWI with no college education and what he achieved...I fear that we will not see the likes of him as President ever again.

if you like sports, the new Ted Williams biography and "When Pride Still Mattered" about the life of Vince Lombardi are particularly oustanding as far as biographies go.
