1982118drmAssociation Copy. A beautifully copy inscribed. To Ted Achilles With appreciation for his service to his nation from Richard Nixon Ted Achilles was a career diplomat who served as the Ambassador to Peru for President Truman. President Eisenhower named Achilles Counselor to the State Department where he was the head of a Special Task Force preparing for the Bay of Pigs Invasion<br /><br />First edition in beautiful condition. Book in fine condition and dust jacket nearly fine with only a few tiny chips in the top of the spine and a few barely noticeable chips at the bottom of spine. Clean text. Unclipped $17.50. Protected by Brodart book jacket cover. <br /><br />The former president draws portraits of major political and military figures of our times--including Douglas MacArthur Shigeru Yoshida Konrad Adenauer Charles de Gaulle Zhou Enlai Mao Winston Churchill Nikita Khrushchev and Leonid Brezhnev.<br /><br />A review of the book in 1982 by the Christian Science Monitor included this in part. Richard Nixon will always be remembered for Watergate. But the former President's forte was foreign affairs.<p>Thus it's doubtful that even the most rabid Nixonophobe will find much fault with the author's recollections of world leaders he was privileged to know during his checkered political career.</p><p>''Leaders'' is fascinating not only for the profiles of those who have shaped the modern world but because it provides a personal perspective on leadership from a man whose failures have affected the way Americans will measure their chief executives. Mr. Nixon delineates the significant difference between leadership and management. The manager he maintains is primarily concerned with short-term results while the leader is a man of vision who concentrates on the future. Accordingly his subjects are those individuals whose long view was never limited by the problem of political risks. Therefore the leaders he features were frequently rejected by their constituencies because they refused to play it safe.</p> Warner Books hardcover

190510New York: Warner Books 1982. First edition first printing presentation copy inscribed by the 37th President on the half-title "To Charlton Heston - from one of his fans - Richard Nixon 1982". This is a fine association copy - aside from Heston's role as perhaps the greatest American actor of the early post-war decades whom Nixon clearly admired Heston was a prominent supporter of Nixon's presidential bid in 1972. In the 1950s Heston had endorsed liberal Democratic candidates in the 1960s more centrist Democrats and finally in the 1970s switched to the Republicans. In the 1972 election he starred in a lengthy campaign video explaining how Nixon had secured his political switch. During Nixon's presidency Heston served on the National Council on the Arts and as a cultural diplomat for the State Department. Into the 1980s Heston was a leading conservative figure active in the National Rifle Association famously challenging gun control advocates to take his rifle "from my cold dead hands" and campaigning against affirmative action and other culture war issues. Leaders offers a detailed examination of the relationship between Nixon and various foreign leaders whom he met throughout his lifetime. The book met with critical praise aiding the rehabilitation of his political image following his resignation of the presidency in 1974. Octavo. Original black quarter cloth spine lettered in gilt.

30521971. Very Good. Contents Summary: By a vote of 254 to 158 the House rejected the Nedzi-Whalen Amendment that would have prohibited the use of funds to be used in Southeast Asia particularly Vietnam after the end of 1971. It was created by opponents of the Vietnam War who supported the reduction of the military budget and a timetable of American forces in Vietnam. Nixon states that these proposals jeopardize the progress of American withdrawal. <br /> <br /> <br /> Typed Typed Letter Signed ‘RN’ in black ink. One Page 6 ¾†x 8 7/8â€. Blind stamped of official seal ‘THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON’. Dated: June 24 1971. Slightly toned. Back stained from glue application. Very Good. Dated: June 24 <br /> <br /> Letter in full: <br /> <br /> "June 24 1971<br /> <br /> Dear Roy:<br /> <br /> During consideration of the military procurement bill for the coming fiscal year a number of amendments were proposed seeking to legislate a deadline for American involvement in Indochina. The debate centered on the Nedzi-Whalen amendment which the House rejected June 17th by a vote of 254 to 158.<br /> <br /> This action by the House of Representatives helped materially to strengthen the efforts of this Administration to achieve a cease-fire the release of American prisoners and the negotiation of a just peace. I appreciate very much your vote and those cast by 253 of your colleagues.<br /> <br /> While we continue to reduce American forces in Indochina various proposals may be advanced in Congress similar to Nedzi-Whalen. Their adoption would seriously jeopardize the progress we are making in ending American involvement in Vietnam and in achieving a just peace.<br /> <br /> I look forward to working with you in the months ahead so that together we might increase the chances not only of ending this war but also of ensuring that other Americans will not have to fight other wars in the future.<br /> <br /> Sincerely <br /> RN<br /> <br /> Honorable Roy A.
