Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. First Edition. Autograph; 464 pages; Clean and secure in original binding in very nice dustjacket. Inscribed and Signed by David McKean on haltitle "To Rolly / With gratitude for your / assistance, and admiration / for all you have accomplished. / It has been wonderful / to find, and to get to know, / a Philadelphia cousin. / Warm Regards, / David" For more than forty years, Clark Clifford was Washington's consummate Democratic power broker - attorney and adviser to the nation's most influential leaders. His 1991 memoir, Counsel to the President, looked back on a remarkable career of public service. But the very year his autobiography was published, the Clifford legend began to crumble. Caught up in the scandal that destroyed the Bank of Credit and Commerce International, the eighty-five-year-old Clifford was arrested on charges relating to his law firm's involvement with the outlaw bank. Though his case never went to trial, and his protege, Robert Altman, was found not guilty, Clifford's reputation was in ruins. How could such a man come to such an end? What happened? And why? In Friends in High Places, a noted investigative reporter and a chief investigator in the Senate inquiry on BCCI provide the answers. Drawing on original documents, more than a hundred interviews with Clifford's friends and adversaries, and fifty hours of interviews with Clifford himself, the authors reveal the drive and shrewdness that led Clifford to the pinnacle of power - and demonstrate convincingly that his involvement with BCCI was no aberration, but the bitter fruit of seeds planted at the beginning. PROVENANCE: Rowland Evans was a provocative newspaper columnist, commentator and author who antagonized liberal politicians and championed conservative causes. He left Yale and enlisted in the Marine Corps in 1942 during World War II and was discharged in 1944 because of malaria. In 1963, Mr. Evans and Mr. Novak began writing ''Inside Report,'' an insider's view of politics that was published four times a week until Mr. Evans retired in 1993. Mr. Evans and Robert Novak began their work as columnists in the early 1960's, a time when newspaper columnists wielded outsize influence in national politics. The pair pioneered in transferring that influence to the medium of cable television with the political discussion program ''Evans & Novak'' -- carried on CNN from that cable network's beginning. Rowland Evans and his wife Kay (Katherine Winton Evans), also a respected writer and editor, were mainstays on the Washington social scene, hosting many memorable gatherings in their handsome Georgetown house -- to which flocked influential and remarkable people drawn from journalism, politics and general society over the decades from the 1960s to the 2000s. Both Evans and Novak became more predictably conservative over the years, particularly during the Reagan years. Reportedly, both columnists voted for JFK in 1960 and for Lyndon Johnson in 1964. Evans earned a place on Richard Nixon's infamous "Enemies List." Novak reported that Evans had JFK as a guest for the first dinner party the latter attended as President Elect. Kay and Rowland Evans has a particularly close friendship with Robert F. Kennedy, his wife Ethel and their family.; Signed by One Author.

Paperback. Etat : Good. First Edition. In the second world war "young people from this nation left the comforts and security of home and family to enter into what proved to be a long and sustained struggle in a cause that threatened the freedom and stability of the entire world. Canada's youth found itself on strange foreign shores, cut off from friends and loved ones. As days turned into months an months into years, the hunger for news became insatiable. There was no complacency here. The usual, the ordinary, the commonplace were eagerly gobbled up as individuals desperately strove to keep in touch. News from home, news of victory, news of pending successes boosted morale, offered encouragement and made the daily routine of war a little more bearable. Those who assumed responsibility for directing, searchiing out and producing the news for Canada's Armed Forces will probably never know the extent to which their efforts were appreciated. It is in recognition of this superlative contribution that this book has come to fruition." - Preface. Presents this history of this publication and recollections of its staffers. Briefly mentions other WWII Canadian military publications. Most of the book is composed of facsimile reproductions of pages from The Maple Leaf Forever. They include many WWII photos and illustrations and make for fascinating reading. 160 pages. Prior owner's name and bit of writing atop half-title page otherwise unmarked with average wear. Binding intact. A sound copy of this most informative and nostalgic work. Cooke (3rd Edn) p.265.; 4to.
