Alan Axelrod adds to his roster of works on business and personal leadership (ELIZABETH I, CEO; PATTON ON LEADERSHIP) with yet another perspective--that of Harry S. Truman, who inherited the White House from Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1945. The author takes a look at the aspects of Truman's life and career that hold important leadership lessons, presenting over 150 lessons in all. The twelve chapters cover such Trumanesque topics as Bringing People Together, The Right Thing, Hell: Giving and Getting, and Facts of the Matter, containing concise, well-presented principles for not only business leaders but laypeople.
