Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Near Fine. 1st Edition. A layered association copy, and something of a mystery. Inscribed on the half title page: "George Wright, Jr.--With all best wishes, Michael Takiff." George Wright, Jr., was a contemporary of Bill Clinton in Hope, Arkansas, and laid in is also a typed letter signed from T…akiff to Wright that reads in part: "As you will see, excerpts from your interview withe the Pryor Center in Fayetteville appear in the text." That material, which is about what childhood was like in Hope, is on page 11. But it is rumored that Bill Clinton was in fact the son of Hope physician George Wright--which would make George Wright, Jr., his half brother. Bill Clinton paid respects at Wright, Sr.'s home in 1997 the week he died. Curiously, this book comes from the library of James Woolsey, Jr., former director of the CIA in the early years of the Clinton Administration and longtime political advisor, who also appears on several pages in the book that detail his selection for the job. Apparently he had little personal relationship or face time with Clinton. How or why this book shifted from Wright, Jr.'s hands to Woolsey's is unknown. An odd book may be rather remarkable. Near fine because of some light bumping to lower outer corners, in a near fine jacket.
