The letters in this volume are gathered from many sources and include missives sent by Truman to his daughter, his mother and sister, his cousins and of course his wife, Bess. This potpourri of information provides an intimate and revealing portrait of Truman and his remarkable career.

This is a collection of private papers from family correspondence, testy letters never sent, memoranda, an off-and-on diary, and complaints about the restrictions of the ""White prison"". It covers the period from his occupancy of the White House in 1945 to shortly before his death in 1972.
