Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. First Edition. FIRST PRINTING. An informative, absorbing read! "We all have, at one time or another, encountered the larger historical figures of the era we live in. In ways large and small, the lives of the ordinary people in this book have suddenly touched the extraordinary-a 12-year-old boxer steps into the ring with a young Cassius Clay; a novice Naval officer's radar picks up a strange ship approaching Cuba; a chance phone call persuades the President to save one student's summer vacation. 'My Brush with History' is a moving and eloquent collection of nearly 100 such stories, first-person reminiscences woven into a lively, fascinating and highly personal history of the twentieth century. Stretching across a century of American life. 'My Brush with History' tells the story of our shared heritage from a simple and wonderfully honest perspective. Everyday men and women recount singular, magical moments that have stayed with them for the rest of their lives. Alongside their works are the remembrances of a handful of notable contributors like Liz Smith, Stephen Ambrose, Barbara Goldsmith and William F. Buckley, Jr., who write of the single events and encounters that stand out within a lifetime in the public eye." 95 black-and-white photographic illustrations (many full-page) with accompanying descriptive captions. 240 pages. A NEAR FINE, BRIGHT, CLEAN, TIGHT COPY sans rips/tears, stains, markings, discoloration and other prominent flaws. GE4.
