Description

“I consider Wilson to be one of our greatest Presidents, in part because of the vision of a more stable world order embodied in the League of Nations”

TLS, one page, 7.25 x 10.5, personal letterhead, September 18, 1989. Letter to Mrs. Maria Agnes Carroll, with the greeting in Nixon’s hand. In full: “It was very kind of you to send me the autographed copy of Woodrow Wilson’s book about the League of Nations. As you probably know, I consider Wilson to be one of our greatest Presidents, in part because of the vision of a more stable world order embodied in the League of Nations concept. Had the League come to fruition, I do not believe it would have solved all the world’s problems anymore than the UN has. But I do believe that the course that led so tragically to World War II might have had a chance of being changed. In any case, the book will have a valued place in my Library. I have just completed my own eighth book, and since I quote Wilson on a number of issues, I will make sure that you receive a copy when it is published next spring as a token of appreciation for your own gesture of friendship.” In fine condition, with horizontal mailing fold touching the tops of a couple letters of signature. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
