Book Signed
Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. Hardcover with DJ. Blue cloth spine with gold lettering, and gray paper over boards. White DJ a bit faded and with several small closed tears at the edges. Binding good and tight, pages clean throughout. Title page dated 1978. Copyright page states First Edition. 654 pages. Overall good condition; no flaws but also not a particularly crisp copy. Interesting inscription on the half title page. 'For Ann + Bernie, with gratitude, affection and esteem. We do send NATO our very best. Warm regards + best wishes. Hope you spend a few happy moments with this book. Dine Walters. SHAPE. 10 June 1980.' This is a bit puzzling to us; first of all, the signature definitely does not say VERNON Walters (but the 'v' in 'very' looks like the sort of distinctive 'v' that Walters used to sign his name. Two notes tucked inside the book itself note that the recipient was General Bernard William Rogers, Chief of Staff of the US Army and Supreme Allied Commander for NATO. Walters and Rogers were contemporaries and both at the height of their careers -- Walters was semi-retired and writing this book during the Carter administration, but would serve as US Ambassador to several countries during the Reagan Administration, including Ambassador to the UN. Rogers had just been appointed Supreme Allied Commander of NATO by President Carter. Still, we would feel better if we could figure out what SHAPE was and why Walters might have signed his name as 'Dine'. Please email with questions or to request photos. If you see a photo beside this listing, please be aware that it s an ABE Stock Photo (whatever that is) and not a photo of this book. Signed by Author(s).
