Description

Hardcover, octovo size volume bound in deep blue genuine leather bonding, elborated gilt stamped in 22kt. gold. Brand new in factory shrink wrap. 463 pages.. Collector’s Notes from The Library of the Presidents and unused Easton Press Book-Plate laid-in loose. A quality Easton Press production with all the refinements that go to make this a truly fine binding: bound in satin ribbon marker, all edges gilt, raised spine, 22kt gold stamping, smyth-sewn binding, acid free archival paper and full genuine leather binding. “Widely considered the most scrupulously researched and exhaustive account of the 17th president”, Trefousse’s biography excels as a balanced and unbiased account of Johnson’s presidency, albeit critics have pointed out its over-reliance on political analysis in lieu of tackling the larger question of why the President made the decisions he did. A pristine, gift quality set, new in shrink wrap.
