This well-loved library copy of “Cathy Whitney President’s Daughter” by Alice Rogers Hager offers a fascinating glimpse into the life of Cathy Whitney, daughter of President Harry S. Truman. Published in 1965, just a decade after Truman’s presidency, the book provides an intimate portrait of the White House through the eyes of the president’s only child. Hager, a close friend of Cathy’s, draws from personal letters and interviews to craft a warm and insightful biography that sheds light on the challenges and joys of growing up in the public eye. Beyond its historical value, the book offers a poignant exploration of family dynamics, personal growth, and the enduring bond between a father and daughter. Despite its ex-library status and lack of a dust jacket, this copy remains a compelling artifact for collectors interested in presidential history, mid-20th century Americana, and the unique perspectives of First Families.
