1991130791991. 37th President. Typed letter signed one page quarto. New Jersey April 12 1991 on personal letterhead to Honorable William Hyland. In full: "Dear Bill Talk about going into the lion's den. I thought you would like to see a list of those who attended an off-the-record appearance I made at a Carnegie Endowment forum in Washington Wednesday. I guess they thought that by having me they would balance the fact that Alger Hiss was once their President! Sincerely". During the Red Scare of the 40's and 50's Alger Hiss was accused of secretly being a Communist while in federal service. After Hiss appeared before Congress and denied being a Communist Nixon a Congressman at the time pressed the Committee to continue the investigation. Hiss was found guilty of two counts of perjury. In a curious way the reputation of Alger Hiss was permanently linked to that of Richard Nixon. The Nixon-haters have always been eager to exonerate Hiss while Nixon's fans are usually convinced of Alger's guilt as a spy. When Nixon was doing well for example when he was Vice-President and when he was a popular President during his first term Hiss's reputation suffered a decline. When Nixon did poorly as after his disastrous run for governor and especially during and after the Watergate crisis more people thought of Hiss as an innocent victim. "File" notation in blue marker at the top right otherwise in excellent condition. In over 2 decades it's the only Nixon letter we have ever seen mentioning Alger Hiss. unknown
261218/3/88. <blockquote><p>We obtained this letter from the Kirkpatrick family and it has never before been offered for sale</p></blockquote><p>The Washington Summit of 1987 was meeting between President Ronald Reagan and Soviet General Secretary Mikhail Gorbachev that took place on December 8–10. Reagan and Gorbachev discussed regional conflicts in Afghanistan Central America and Southern Africa arms control issues for chemical weapons as well as conventional weapons the status of START limitation on strategy weapons negotiations and human rights. Some progress was made in these areas. The notable accomplishment of the Washington Summit was the signing of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty which banned all of the two nations' land-based ballistic missiles cruise missiles and missile launchers. By 1991 almost 2700 missiles had been eliminated. Needless to say the collegial atmosphere of the talks and the feeling that Gorbachev was a man you could work with caused great excitement in the United States after half a century of Cold War.</p><p>In 1988 former President Nixon wrote a book 1999: Victory Without War which offered his comprehensive strategy for the West—a vital plan of action that would help ensure peace prosperity and freedom in the next century. In it he provided commentary and suggestions in the area of his great expertise foreign policy. He began by arguing that the United States should continue to play a central international role. He contended that world peace is inseparable from world power and that real peace is not absence of conflict but living with unending conflict the natural state of world affairs. He sought to tamp down the popularity of Gorbachev whom he saw as seeking change that would permit the Soviet Union to find hegemony. Still he cogently argued for a realistic policy toward the Soviets involving a mix of deterrence competition and negotiation. His hard-line views are on display in other areas. On nuclear armaments he endorsed Reagan's plan for laser-based weapons in space ""Star Wars"" and urged ""no first-strike vulnerability."" He advocated continued support of Nicaragua's contras covert CIA actions overseas build-up of nuclear power more U.S. cruise missiles in Europe the establishment of U.S. air bases in Saudi Arabia. He blamed Africa's poverty on the terrible governments there. He strongly opposed the adoption of protectionist trade measures against Japan.</p><p>Jeane Kirkpatrick was a lifelong Democrat working in both state and national campaigns including Hubert Humphrey's 1972 presidential campaign. She grew increasingly dissatisfied however with the Democratic Party's liberal faction and in 1972 cofounded the Coalition for a Democratic Majority. Her conservative writings regarding U.S. foreign policy impressed Ronald Reagan and during his 1980 presidential campaign she was selected as his foreign policy advisor. Under President Reagan she became the first woman to serve as U.S. ambassador to the United Nations serving from 1981 to 1985. She was also given cabinet rank and was also a member of Reagan’s national security team. She remained active in politics but as a Republican.</p><p>Nixon sent Kirkpatrick an advance copy of his book. <strong>Typed letter signed</strong> on his letterhead New York March 8 1988 to Kirkpatrick in which he makes it clear that he does not share the excitement about Gorbachev and still distrusts the Soviets. <em>“The enclosed proofs of 1999: Victory Without War represent my reflections after forty years of observing and participating in U.S. foreign policy. Some of our mutual friends will consider it to be too tough on the Soviets but I thought it was essential to provide an antidote for the wave of euphoria that seems to have engulfed the West since the Washington summit. I think you may find the last chapter in which I try to look into the future past the 1988 election of particular interest.â€</em></p><p>Nixon’s distrust of Gorbachev though hardly unexpected proved baseless. Under Gorbachev’s leadership the next year the Berlin Wall came down in 1990 six republics left the Soviet Union and in 1991 the Soviet Union dissolved altogether.</p><p><img class=""alignnone wp-image-25018 size-post-window"" src=""https://cdn.raabcollection.com/wp-content/uploads/20231204144051/Folder-site-11-1600x1327.jpg"" alt="""" width=""1600"" height=""1327"" /></p> unknown

This is the autobiography of Richard Nixon the thirty-seventh president of the Unired States. Before him only six men who held the office wrote comorehensive memoirs. Now here is Richard Nixon's self-portrait: a major work of autobiography an extraordinary historucal documents and intensely personal memoir. Richard Nixon begins his story with his earliest recollections of a rural California boyhood and cntinues through the moment he and his family left the White House. Without question this book will be a basic source for historians and scholars. It is likely to engender as much debate and discussion as did the author himself throughout his public life. Here is the opportunity to see and to judge the kind of man Richard Nixon perceives himself to be; here he candidly analyzes his strengths and his weaknesses his doubts and strong beliefs his successes and failures his good - and his bad - decisions. What kind of man was the first president to resign the office: why did he do what he did These are the things we want to know from the man himself; these are the things Richard Nixon now tells us.
