A Widow, a Chihuahua, and Harry Truman: A Story of Love, Loss, and Love Again

Facing her first Christmas alone following the loss of her husband to cancer, Mary Beth Crain found new love in a pet store, in the form of a 3 lb. Chihuahua puppy. Named for her idol Harry Truman, from whose strong moral fiber and common sense the young widow drew strength, the little dog would soon help reconnect his companion to the joy of life, and to her own resilient spirit. With an engaging combination of offbeat humor and courage, Crain gives us a fresh and original memoir about recovery from grief, surviving puppyhood, and the reasons millions of Americans love Harry Truman.
