VERY GOOD CONDITION

 

This sale is for a large size vintage hardback SIGNED FIRST EDITION entitled “Our Long National Daydream,” subtitled “A Political Pageant of the Reagan Era,” by Sidney Blumenthal.

 

It was published by Harper & Row, Publishers, of New York, etc., is the 1988 (date of copyright) FIRST EDITION, with the publisher’s print code “10 9 8 7 65 4 3 2 1,” and has been inscribed and SIGNED by the author on the first blank page.

 

This collection of essays examines the Reagan presidency, the 1984 Presidential election, the presidency in its final tenure.  The author discusses the power and durability of Reagan's image, his impact upon policies and issues, and the fates of figures surrounding him.   The essays were from articles that originally appeared in the New Republic (from 1983-1985 the author was its chief national political correspondent) and The Washington Post (for which the author was a staff writer from the spring of 1985) during the 1980's, some slightly edited for this book.

 

Sidney Blumenthal is an American journalist, best-known as a former aide to President Bill Clinton, and a long-time confidant of Hillary Clinton.

 

The book measures 9.5 inches x 6.5 inches x 1.25 inches and has 327 pages. 

 

The book is in good, neat condition for its age, with slight fading to the spine of the otherwise similarly very good original dust-jacket (not even price-clipped), the author’s inscription/signature across the blank endpaper at the front and no other ink or pencil markings in the book.  The binding is good with no loose or missing pages.

 

A wonderful vintage SIGNED FIRST EDITION.
