John F. Kennedy – The Strategy Of Peace – First US Edition 1960 – SIGNED and INSCRIBED by JFK
£6,500.00
A first edition of ‘The Strategy of Peace’ published by Harper in 1960. A very good book inscribed ‘To Don (Mitchell)/With many thanks and/ my personal regards/Jack Kennedy’. A little wear to the edges and some spotting to the top edge. No other inscriptions. In a very good wrapper with some neat, internal repairs. Some creasing. Also included is a copy of the Congressional Record for Wednesday, November 27, 1963 which deals with Kennedy’s death.
Donald J. Mitchell (1923–2003) was a Republican U.S. Congressman from New York who served from 1973 to 1983. A World War II Army veteran, he later became involved in local politics and served in the New York State Assembly before his election to Congress. During his time in the House of Representatives, Mitchell focused on veterans’ affairs, defence, and agriculture, reflecting the needs of his upstate New York constituency. Known for his moderate Republican views, he was respected for his pragmatic approach to legislation. After leaving Congress, he remained active in public service and community affairs until his death.
