Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents a proposal to create a National Historic Site at Harry S Truman's home in Independence, Missouri. At the heart of this proposal is the Truman home, a historic house-museum with an unparalleled collection of original artefacts that offer insight into the personal and political life of the thirty-third president. The book describes the collection in detail, including the challenges of preserving the thousands of items, the need for climate-controlled storage, and the significance of the objects in understanding the Truman presidency. The proposal further engages with the cultural and socioeconomic factors that have shaped the Truman neighborhood, emphasizing the importance of preserving key structures and protecting the historic setting of the Truman home. By examining the existing threats to the neighborhood's historic integrity, such as incompatible changes and the demolition of historic buildings, this book presents a reasoned case for expanding the National Historic Site boundary, thereby preserving the neighborhood's unique character. The book concludes with an exploration of the various preservation tools available to protect the neighborhood, underscoring the importance of community involvement and the need for a private trust to manage acquired interests. By incorporating diverse perspectives and presenting a comprehensive plan for preserving a nationally significant historic site, this book will be an indispensable resource for those interested in Truman's legacy and in the preservation of historic places. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
