    Description

    First Edition; A Very Good to Near Fine book. SIGNED and inscribed by the author to "Capt...." on Eisenhower's personal bookplate. An excellent copy of this historical account of the war in Europe and also somewhat of a personal memoir of Eisenhower's; this is the first edition released after the limited edition, missing the jacket. The book is in very good or better condition with light rubbing to the edges, a mild looseness to the binding (the binding still completely intact and square), a previous owner's inscription to the verso of the free end paper, and some mild staining to the bookplate, probably a slight bleed from the map on the front paste down. Overall, a very presentable copy with the significant enhancement of the personal bookplate; this edition somewhat scarce, particularly signed; an important addition to any presidential or World War II collection. Will ship carefully wrapped in a sturdy box.
