With an autograph letter signed by the author to Albright laid in. The recipient Madeleine K. Albright was the first woman to serve as the U.S. Secretary of State. She acted under President Bill Clinton from 1997 to 2001 leading the United States through foreign policy in the Middle East with the endorsement of military action in Iraq. At the 1998 NATO summit Albright coined the “3 Ds†of NATO “which is no diminution of NATO no discrimination and no duplication – because I think that we don’t need any of those three “Ds†to happen.†After her tenure as Secretary of State she served as chair of the consulting Albright Stonebridge Group and was the Michael and Virginia Mortara Endowed Distinguished Professor in the Practice of Diplomacy at Georgetown University’s School of Foreign Service. For Albright’s contributions to foreign policy and relations that defined a century President Barack Obama awarded her the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2012. Fine in a near fine dust jacket.

Albright.†If You Wear Galoshes You're an Emigre by Peter Zwack is a memoir that explores the author's personal experiences as a child of emigre parents navigating the complexities of cultural identity and displacement. Zwack reflects on his family's journey from Hungary to the United States during the Cold War and their efforts to adapt to a new life while maintaining connections to their European roots. The book examines themes of exile adaptation and the search for belonging with a particular focus on the immigrant experience in America. Through a mix of personal anecdotes and historical context Zwack offers a unique perspective on the emotional and practical challenges of being an emigre in a foreign land shedding light on the broader immigrant experience in the 20th century.
