Diary Appointment Book of Harry S. Truman

82 img

The first part of this diary details the cities and towns Harry S. Truman visited as the Federal Reemployment Director for the State of Missouri, it includes the time he arrived, the mileage on his car, whom he met with, and any expenses he incurred (such as food, lodging, and gas and oil for the car). In May, Truman declared his candidacy for the United States Senate. All of the pages from May through November document Truman's travels through Missouri during the primary campaign and general election. The numbers on the left side of each page usually indicate the mileage on his car, followed by the name of the town he visited, along with the time and duration of his visit. He also made note of any people he met with, if they were likely to vote for him or against him, and the enthusiasm of the crowds.
