One Shot: The World War II Photography of John A.… door Ray E. Boomhower
This book is impressive on many levels. The images by John A. Bushemi are well presented in this award winning book on his life as a photographer. The Introduction by James H. Madison is very well written and gives a slightly less glossed over perspective of World War II than most history books. The biography written by Ray E. Boomhower is extremely well research and documented. This book won a Benjimin Franklin book award.

A young adult book, so very high level bio of Harrison. Not a lot of detail or historical perspective. However, there are very few biographies of Benjamin Harrison.
