A propos de cet article

The book first appeared in the US published by Doubleday & Company in 1966. ***Near fine in cream paper over dark-pink cloth-covered boards, with gilt titles to the spine. The boards are beautifully clean - just very slightly rubbed at the edges - having been protected by the dustwrapper. Head and tail of the spine uncreased, and no bumps or creases. Corners sharp. No reading lean to the binding and no reading creases to the spine. Spine tight. Top edge of page block stained dark-pink by the publisher - nice and clean and unfaded - other edges also clean. Internally also near fine, with no previous ownership inscriptions. No internal foxing. No creases or tears. ***In a very good typographical dustwrapper, which has not been price-clipped, retaining the original publisher's printed price of 36s. net at the bottom of the front flap. The dustwrapper is complete, but has a 2cm closed tear at the top edge of the back panel, with some associated creasing, and a small area of loss to the top corner of the back panel with brown paper repair (please see scans). Edges also slightly rubbed and creased. The spine is clean and the pink titles remain unfaded. ***235mm x 160mm. 391 pages including a comprehensive 22 page Index at the back of the book. ***For contents, please see photo scans. ***'Pierre Emil George Salinger (Jun 14, 1925 - Oct 16, 2004) was an American journalist, author and politician. He served as the ninth White House press secretary for United States presidents John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson. Salinger served as a United States Senator in 1964 and as campaign manager for the 1968 Robert F. Kennedy presidential campaign. After leaving politics, Salinger became known for his work as an ABC News correspondent, particularly for his coverage of the 1979-81 Iran Hostage Crisis; the 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland; and his claims of a missile being the cause of the explosion of TWA Flight 800 in 1996. After Salinger researched and wrote a number of articles in 1956 about labor union leader Jimmy Hoffa, Robert F. Kennedy hired him to be legal counsel for the Senate Select Committee investigating organized crime, known as the McClellan Committee. Later, Kennedy wanted him to be press secretary to his brother, John F. Kennedy, who was then a member of the Senate. Salinger worked on John Kennedy's presidential campaign in 1960 and became one of its leading figures. He was at times described as being part of Kennedy's Kitchen Cabinet of unofficial advisers. After Kennedy was elected in 1961, he hired Salinger as his press secretary. When Kennedy became the first president to allow live television broadcasts of his news conferences, Salinger was said to have managed the press corps with "wit, enthusiasm and considerable disdain for detail", which made him a "celebrity in his own right."' (Wiki) ***First printing of the first UK edition, complete in its original dustwrapper, in very nice condition. Of interest to historians researching the political career and untimely death of President Kennedy and conspiracy theories around the death. An uncommon book in UK first edition. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.***.…
