Harry Truman If one were to discuss life after the Second World War, if they were not a historian would perhaps not talk much about Harry S. Truman as a major factor. Truman is ranked seventh among forty one presidents ranging from Washington to Clinton . Truman succeeded Roosevelt, after his death, and the day after his inauguration said “I felt like the moon, the stars, and all the planets had fallen on me.” After making the decision to end World War II by dropping to atomic bombs on Japan, Truman entered a period of time that he would not even out last. Historians debate on whether or not Truman entered the United States into the Cold War or not. These next few pages will outline Truman’s presidency beginning and focusing mainly on the “Truman Doctrine” and its effects on foreign policy after 1947. To begin to talk about life after the end of War World II without discussing the war in detail may due it some injustice, but after all it is only a fifteen page paper.
