About This Item
Cambridge (MA): Harvard University Press, 1962. Second printing. Hardcover. Very good/good. 12mo, 83pp. A very good copy with a large stain along the spine, affecting both the book and dust jacket. Book generally clean and sound, but the jacket showing the stain, thus good only. This copy SIGNED and INSCRIBED by Rockefeller on the half-title page: "To Margaretta with affectionate regards. Nelson A. Rockefeller." Curiously, Rockefeller's second wife (who served as Second Lady during the Ford administration, when Nelson was Vice President) was named Margaretta (though she went by "Happy"), as was her mother. An erased notation from a previous bookseller seems to read--very faintly, as it has been erased--"Presentation copy inscribed to mother-in-law." While the inscription strikes us as a little cool and formal to be familial, it's worth remembering that one can never be too cautious in addressing one's mother-in-law. Despite condition, a significant copy of this group of lectures by the 49th Governor of New York and perennial liberal Republican presidential contender.

About Cleveland Book Company
We are proud members of the ABAA.
As a small, independent bookseller in Cleveland, Ohio, I deal in general used, rare, and antiquarian books, autographs, manuscripts, pamphlets, and personal and family papers in all subjects. My family has been in the antiquarian book business since 1971. Are you moving, downsizing, or doing some spring cleaning? Did you inherit or otherwise come into some old books? Or, maybe you've collected modern novels from the last thirty or fifty years. No matter what kinds of books you have, we'd love to take a look at them! We travel throughout Ohio, western Pennsylvania and New York, southern Michigan, and eastern Indiana, and will travel farther in some cases to look at whole libraries or even just a few particularly interesting books. Give us a call at (216) 352-3940 and we can talk more about the kinds of books you have.
