Claudia Alta "Lady Bird" Taylor Johnson (December 22, 1912 July 11, 2007) was First Lady of the United States (196369) during the presidency of her husband Lyndon B. Johnson.Notably well educated for her time, she proved a capable manager and a shrewd investor. After marrying LBJ in 1934, when he was a political hopeful in Austin, Texas, she used a modest inheritance to bankroll his congressional campaign, and then ran his office while he was serving in the navy. Next, she bought a radio station and then a TV station, which would soon make them millionaires. As First Lady, she broke new ground by interacting directly with Congress, employing her own press secretary, and making a solo electioneering tour.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Association copy, inscribed on the sage-green front free endpaper (not on a bookplate, like most copies): "For Josie and Walter Bruce -- Who share my devotion to the national park service, Lady Bird Johnson." Walter Taylor Bruce, Jr., was a National Park Service historian who served as the superintendent (director) at a number of NPS sites, most significantly, in terms of this book, at the Lyndon B. Johnson National Historic Site near Austin, Texas, where he was the inaugural superintendent from 1970-1972. No doubt the Johnsons and the Bruces got to know each other for that reason. Once known as the Texas White House because LBJ spent about 20 percent of his time in residence there while in office, the site is now a National Historical Park, protecting the birthplace, home, ranch, and grave of LBJ. Lady Bird Johnson is also buried there. Lady Bird Johnson s commitment to the National Park Service goes well beyond this connection. She was known as the environmental First Lady, instrumental in the support of over 200 environmental laws passed during LBJ s administration, including the Highway Beautification Act of 1965. Beautification was her focus, but it meant much more that it suggests (and she had her concerns about the word). As she described it, beautification was "picking up a tangled skein of wool; all the threads are interwoven -- recreation and pollution and mental health, and the crime rate and rapid transit and the war on poverty, and parks -- everything leads to something else." After leaving the White House, she served for many years on the council of the National Park Service's Advisory Board on National Parks, Historic Sites, Buildings and Monuments. Richard Nixon dedicated the Lady Bird Johnson Grove in Redwood National Park in 1969 in recognition of her conservation and environmental work, and there is also an NPS-managed island in the Potomac River named the Lady Bird Johnson Park. She was such a strong advocate for expansion and improvement of the national park system that Secretary of Interior Stuart Udall called her "a second secretary of the interior in the White House." This diary is an abridged version of the one she kept throughout her five years in the White House, and includes her reports on her environmental activities and much else. As for Walter Bruce, he also served as superintendent at Fort McHenry National Monument, Maryland; Horseshoe Bend National Military Park, Alabama; and Fort Frederica National Monument, Georgia. A very good plus book (and a big book at about 800 pages) on account of a speckling foxing to upper and outer text block faces, otherwise about fine; in a very near fine jacket with one very small, clean tear at top of spine, now in mylar. A nice association. // Wood (+) River (=) Books specializes in ecology, natural history, nature writing, the environment, and environmental literature, with a special passion for association copies and notable inscriptions.

Additional inscription on the half-title: "For Tommy Corcoran - who shared these wonderful years - and so many more - a friend for all seasons. Devotedly, Lady Bird Johnson. Merry Christmas! 1970." An exceptional association copy. Thomas G. Corcoran (1900-1981) was a principal strategist of Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal, shaping historic legislation such as the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938. Along with Benjamin V. Cohen, he created the Securities and Exchange Commission and worked unsuccessfully to "pack" the Supreme Court in 1937. He left the Roosevelt administration after the second term, becoming one of the first modern day political lobbyists. As a lobbyist, he helped his friend, Lady Bird Johnson, gain FCC approval for her purchase of a radio station in Austin, Texas. He also ensured the election of Lyndon Johnson to the Senate in 1948, by using his influence over the Supreme Court to clear Johnson of charges of election fraud in his campaign for the Democratic nomination in Texas. The Johnsons owed much of their personal and political fortunes to the recipient of this book.
