About This Item
New York: Simon and Schuster, 1990. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good-/Very good-. Octavo, 384pp., illustrated. About very good in the publisher's blue boards with blue cloth spine. Dampstain at the base--more notably affecting the dust jacket--and some bumps to corners, but otherwise a crisp, clean copy. SIGNED and INSCRIBED by Nixon on a front blank: "To John Pilzhoff [?] Jr. with best wishes from Richard Nixon." As one of Nixon's last published books before his death in 1994, there are fewer authentically signed copies in commerce than some earlier titles. We've found that most copies in the trade described as signed are in fact signed on bookplates which were later laid-in or affixed to the book.

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.
