Inscribed ÒFor Charles & Oona Chaplin - With warm regards, Bill BuckleyÓ on a specially printed label affixed to the flyleaf. Fine in a very good dust jacket with some tiny tears. Illustrated with photographs. A very interesting association and friendship as Buckley, one of AmericaÕs most noted political conservatives and found of the magazine National Review, and Chaplin whose liberal political views got him exiled from America during the McCarthy Era.ÓAirborne is how William F. Buckley, Jr., describes his sail across the wide Atlantic with this son and five friends. The trip, for fifteen years a cream, for fifteen months a planned operation always at risk: one doesnÕt set out haphazardly in a small sailboat across 4,400 miles of ocean.Ó.
