About This Item
The book at hand was given by Meyer to Warne Nunn, a longtime Oregon political figure, serving as executive assistant and Chief of Staff to Mark Hatfield, Oregon Governor and, later, US Senator. Nunn served on the Meyer Memorial Trust for several years, starting with its inception in 1983.
The book itself is a warning against America's inexorable slide to communism, a trend following WWII and hastened by the Kennedy and Johnson Administrations. The author prevails upon Dick Nixon to arrest the communist plot.
Dust jacket is now housed in a removable, clear archival sleeve.
