In the preface to his book, "A Presidential Legacy and The Warren Commission," Ford defended the work of the commission and reiterated his support of its conclusions. Signed by Gerald R. Ford in 1994, as the last living member of the Warren Commission. A rare book, in very good condition. Gift Quality.
