Fifth printing (per publisher's number line upon copyright page) possibly inscribed and signed by George Bush. 640 pages. Hardcover: H 24.25cm x L 15.75cm. Dust jacket rubbed with some bumping at edges; short tear at rear panel's top right; front flap is not price-clipped. Blue spine bumped at ends; short tear at head of rear joint; white boards. Small faint brown stain at lower fore-edge; touch of soiling to bottom edge. Four-line black felt tip ink inscription "To Kevin | Best of luck | w/ The First Tee! | George Bush" boldly written upon front pastedown; six-line Christmas ink inscription to Kevin presumably from wife/girlfriend Summer dated for 12/22/99 at front free endpaper's top right with the writing reflecting a rather youthful hand. Interior pages are clean. Binding retains some crispness. Book was acquired from a Tuscaloosa, Alabama estate with no further provenance known. As with all presidential inscriptions/signatures one must consider the possibility of secretarials and autopens and combinations thereof - the circumstance of the inscription's presence upon the pastedown seems alright as President Bush was left-handed and thus writing on the left endpaper would be a bit more natural than writing upon the right endpaper (i.e. the opposing front free endpaper) but, however, the writing of inscription reflects some tentativeness not found in the rather firm signature and the "B" in "Best" is structured differently than the "B" in "Bush." Although not at all versed in the nuances of Bush's handwriting, this bookseller favors a secretarial for the inscription with firmer confidence for the actual signature being Bush's and thus sold with that caveat. Jpeg images of the book and inscription gladly emailed upon request. {AmHistShelf#1} ISBN 068483958X. …

This Gateway Stamp Cachet honoring the dedication of the Reagan Presidential Library and The Gathering of Five US Presidents at one time. It is postmarked Nov 4, 1991 in Simi Valley, CA. and is in Fine condition. George Herbert Walker is the former President of the United States, who was in the office from 1989 to 1993. He was born in Massachusetts into a political and affluent family. His father, Prescott Sheldon Bush, was a Senator from Connecticut and his mother, Dorothy Bush, hailed from a prominent family. George H.W. Bush joined the US Navy during the Second World War and after coming back he graduated from Yale University with a B.A. degree in economics. He rejected the offer of joining his father's firm and instead shifted to Texas and worked as an oil field supplies salesman. Within a decade he became a millionaire and then entered politics. George H.W. Bush occupied a number of important positions during his political career. He was elected to the House of Representatives from the 7th District of Texas, was appointed as Ambassador to the United Nations, became the Director of Central Intelligence and served as the Vice President of United States during the presidency of Ronald Reagan. In 1988, he was elected as the Republican Party's candidate for the office of U.S President. He defeated Democratic nominee Michael Dukakis and became the 41st President of the United States. Although he became quite popular as a President for his stand against international terrorism and for portraying a strong picture of the nation to the world, he lost the next election in 1993.

Presentation copy from President George H. W. Bush to Jimmy Carter, inscribed by Bush on a presentation bookplate mounted to the front free endpaper verso, "To President Jimmy Carter, Merry Christmas 1989. George Bush". Despite their political differences - and Bush's role as Reagan's running mate in Carter's landslide defeat in 1980 - the two presidents maintained cordial, respectful relations. Following Bush's death, Carter stated that "His administration was marked by grace, civility, and social conscience". Published to mark Bush's inauguration and the bicentenary of George Washington's first inauguration, the book contains a biography of every American president. It describes Carter as having "brought to the White House an honest grin, a disarming candor, and lots of inexperience" (p. 383), and the newly inaugurated Bush as having "offered the nation the chance to continue in the direction which President Reagan had so compellingly outlined" (p. 444). The copy is out-of-series from an edition of 1,000 copies. The opening text page has the ink stamp, "from the library of Jimmy Carter", added ahead of the book's inclusion in the posthumous sale of Carter's library at Christie's, with proceeds benefiting the Carter Family Foundation. Octavo. Original blue sheep, spine lettered in gilt. Housed in original blue slipcase. A little rubbing with some discolouration to slipcase. A very good copy.…

Typed inaugural address signed by the 41st President of the United States with a rare full signature, "George Herbert Walker Bush." One page, typescript, the souvenir inaugural address measures 4.75 inches by 3.25 inches, signed at the conclusion with Bush's rare full signature, "George Herbert Walker Bush." The address reads in full, 'I, George Herbert Walker Bush, do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will, to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States, so help me God.' Matted and framed with a plaque and portrait of George H.W. Bush. In fine condition. The entire piece measures 21 inches by 16.5 inches. The presidency of George H. W. Bush, spanning from 1989 to 1993, was characterized by its multifaceted foreign policy initiatives, notably the successful management of the end of the Cold War and the Gulf War against Iraq in 1991. Domestically, Bush's tenure witnessed economic fluctuations, including a recession, for which he faced criticism. His approach to domestic policy was marked by a mix of pragmatic compromise and ideological steadfastness, exemplified by his decision to compromise with Congress on budgetary matters despite his earlier pledge against tax increases. Additionally, his administration navigated complex issues such as environmental policy, signing into law the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990. Despite his accomplishments in foreign affairs, Bush's presidency is often overshadowed by his defeat in the 1992 election, attributed in part to economic concerns and a perceived disconnection from the concerns of everyday Americans. Nonetheless, his diplomatic efforts and leadership during pivotal moments in international relations underscore his significance in shaping the post-Cold War era.…
