Dewey Defeats Truman
Thomas Mallon
A masterful retelling of a legend and famous headline of modern American history?Harry Truman?s upset victory over Thomas E. Dewey in the 1948 presidential election.
Set in Dewey?s hometown of Owosso, Michigan, this is the captivating story of a local love triangle that mirrors the national election contest. As the voters must decide between the candidates, so must Anne Macmurray choose between two suitors: an ardent United Auto Workers organizer and his polar opposite, a wealthy young Republican lawyer who?s running for the state senate. Weaving a tapestry of small-town secrets, the people of Owosso ready themselves for the fame that is bound to shower down upon them after Dewey?s ?sure thing? victory. But as the novel?and history?move toward election night, we watch the townspeople, along with Anne and her suitors, have their fates rearranged in a climax filled with suspense, chagrin and unexpected joy.
