Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Dust Jacket Condition: very good. First Edition. Quarto, 112pp., illustrated. A very good copy in the publisher's red-orange cloth, with gentle bumps to the corner. In a very good dust jacket with some small chips at the extremities. This copy SIGNED and INSCRIBED by Anderson, who had recently be…en Eisenhower's Secretary of the Treasury, to Judge Oren Harris: "For Judge Oren Harris with the warm regards and great respect of his friend Bob Anderson." Harris was a sitting U. S. Congressman from Arkansas at the time of the inscription, and spent most of his career as a United States District Court Judge in various capacities. The book itself is quite uncommon, especially signed. The contents are image-driven, depicting the speed of mid-century American progress, while Anderson reflects on the spiritual needs of American society in that context. This copy bears a pleasing association.

Provenance: RR Auction of Amherst, NH, purchased in 2022. ".because this possible peril existed, Vice President Nixon and I, in consultation with the Attorney General, prior to my 1956 operation, reduced to memorandum form our understanding as to what would be the Vice President's role in the event of a Presidential disability." - former President Dwight D. Eisenhower. The Twenty-fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution clarifies the presidential line of succession and eliminates ambiguity about the role of the Vice President. As President Eisenhower noted in his preface, his signed agreement with Vice President Nixon did not have the legal authority to make Nixon the president if Eisenhower had become incapacitated during his surgeries. The death of President Kennedy brought new focus on the presidential line of succession, with legislation for the Twenty-fifth Amendment proposed by Senator Bayh in 1965 and ratified by the states in 1967. Typed preface by former President Dwight D. Eisenhower for One Heartbeat Away: Presidential Disability and Succession by Senator Birch Bayh. Preface is signed by Eisenhower, with handwritten notes by the editor. Includes copy of the book. (illustrator). Signed.

He first took the post of Deputy Secretary for the duration of Mr. McElroy's term and then in December assumed the post of Secretary of Defense. During his term as Secretary he had the satisfaction of seeing the Polaris, developed by the Navy under his leadership, make its first successful firings and join America's growing arsenal."
