McAdoo, hardcover, published by Houghton Mifflin in 1931, signed and inscribed on the first free end page in bold fountain pen, "To Gilbert Brown, with my warm regard and best wishes, W. G. McAdoo, 1932"; and a first edition of Julia and the White House, hardcover with dust jacket, published by Dodd, Mead & Company in 1946, signed on the first free end page in fountain pen, "Eleanor Wilson McAdoo."
