Eisenhower Leaves White House for Gettysburg Farm Life

He moves from the vast presidential staff and White House power to a quiet Gettysburg farm, trading planes and machinery for a single car, a station wagon, and two jeeps. Documents, gifts, and keepsakes have moved to museums or the Gettysburg home, while the First Family’s remaining possessions are modest.
