At one time, the private Pullman car on a special train was for the president what Air Force One is today, allowing him freedom to make important trips, campaign for re-election, and to do the nation's business wherever he was needed. A superbly researched text is supplemented with many rare photographs of the golden age of presidential travel under Franklin Roosevelt and Harry Truman in the 1930s and '40s.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51908802117920,"sku":"NEW1883089174","price":141.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/A1cG7D2CoUL.jpg?v=1782285944","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-president-travels-by-train-politics-and-pullmans-1883089174","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
