196311428New York: Thomas Nelson & Sons 1963. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good/very good. Quarto 112pp. illustrated. A very good copy in the publisher's red-orange cloth with gentle bumps to the corner. In a very good dust jacket with some small chips at the extremities. This copy SIGNED and INSCRIBED by Anderson who had recently been Eisenhower's Secretary of the Treasury to Judge Oren Harris: "For Judge Oren Harris with the warm regards and great respect of his friend Bob Anderson." Harris was a sitting U. S. Congressman from Arkansas at the time of the inscription and spent most of his career as a United States District Court Judge in various capacities. The book itself is quite uncommon especially signed. The contents are image-driven depicting the speed of mid-century American progress while Anderson reflects on the spiritual needs of American society in that context. This copy bears a pleasing association. Thomas Nelson & Sons hardcover
250444/4/52. <blockquote><p>Ike signed this as president and sent it to a Navy veteran</p></blockquote><p>On April 4 1949 twelve nations from Western Europe and North America signed the North Atlantic Treaty in Washington D.C. A key feature of this treaty is Article 5 in which the signatory members agreed that ""an armed attack against one or more of them in Europe or North America shall be considered an attack against them all.†Initially however the alliance was not very well prepared to carry out the mission of defending its territory. In addition to grave shortages of troops and equipment there was no command structure to direct the overall defense of Western Europe just committees - known as ""Regional Planning Groups"" - that were charged with drawing up plans for the defense of their regions.</p><p>The 12 original members were the United States Canada Britain Belgium Denmark France Iceland Italy Luxembourg the Netherlands Norway and Portugal.</p><p>All this changed after the outbreak of the Korean War in June 1950 which raised fears that Europe could face a similar threat over divided Germany. The nations of the alliance agreed to increase their defence efforts and began working on the creation of an integrated military command structure with an overall commander for NATO forces in Europe.</p><p>Selecting the first Supreme Allied Commander Europe SACEUR was easy since everyone's first choice was the popular and respected U.S. Army Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower who had led allied forces in Europe during World War II. On December 19 1950 the North Atlantic Council announced the appointment of General Eisenhower as the first Supreme Allied Commander.</p><p>In 1952 Greece and Turkey joined in the alliance's first expansion.</p><p><strong>Document signed</strong> by Dwight D. Eisenhower first Supreme Allied Commander of Nato stamped April 4 1952 signed as President in February 1957 the first day cover honoring NATO along with the first NATO stamp honoring NATO. Comes with two letters relating to the cover sent to its owner L. Dean Powell a Navy veteran.</p><p>We have found no other signed examples of this cover having reached the market.</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
