Handsomely matted and framed. Scarce and desirable signed by Grant. Ulysses S. Grant served as president of the United States from March 4 1869 to March 4 1877. On January 29 1877 five days before he left office Grant gave an address to the Senate of the United States regarding a controversial dispute that had arisen over the results of the upcoming presidential election. In the address Grant argued that the people must put their trust in Congress stating: "In all periods of history controversies have arisen as to the succession or choice of the chiefs of states and no party or citizens loving their country and its free institutions can sacrifice too much of mere feeling in preserving through the upright course of law their country from the smallest danger to its peace on such an occasion; and it can not be impressed too firmly in the hearts of all the people that true liberty and real progress can exist only through a cheerful adherence to constitutional law. unknown books

Rare and desirable signed by both Hoover and Truman. President Harry Truman said of Herbert Hoover "I feel that I am one of his closest friends and he is one of my closest friends." After the power of the presidency was turned over to President Eisenhower former President Truman headed home to Independence Missouri. As Truman left the inaugural events he greeted former President Herbert Hoover. Hoover said "I think we ought to organize a former Presidents' club". At this point Hoover was the only person alive who could understand what it was like to be the President of the United States. This bond helped to fuel a friendship that lasted over twenty years. While both men disagreed on many political issues their commonalties in life experience were the basis of their friendship. Both men were brought up in humble beginnings in the Midwest. Hoover was an orphan by the age of 10 and Truman grew up on a farm. As adults both men did quite well. Hoover became wealthy as an engineer in China and Truman became a judge in Independence Missouri. unknown books
