Painter might be one of the best historians I've ever read, apart from Alison Weir. Truth is enigmatic at best because of no primary documents actually written by her, but Painter made Truth the American symbol so human and real.

Reading this for grad school, and Painter creates such a realistic portrait of an American symbol. It's well-researched but reads more like a novel than historical biography.
