A first edition, first printing of the Inaugural Edition of ‘Profiles in Courage’ published by Harper Row in 1961. A very good book (or better) with one neat gift inscription. Some spotting to the page edges. In a very good (double) clipped wrapper.

A Pulitzer Prize–winning book highlighting eight U.S. senators who demonstrated political bravery by taking principled but unpopular stands. Written with research support from Theodore Sorensen, it celebrates moral courage in public service. Through historical case studies—from John Quincy Adams to Robert A. Taft—the book argues that integrity and conscience should triumph over party pressure and personal ambition, offering an inspiring reflection on leadership and civic responsibility.
