Barrie James Matthew John F. Kennedy
Courage: The Rectorial Address Delivered at St. Andrews University May 3 1922.
New York: Charles Scribner's Sons 1937. First edition of Barrie's rousing inaugural address; a favorite of John F. Kennedy's as a college student at Harvard which would later play a role in the development of his Pulitzer Prize-winning work Profiles in Courage. Octavo original cloth. Association copy inscribed by John F. Kennedy on the front free endpaper "Dear Jerry Here's coals to Newcastle! Courage to the Courageous! John Kennedy Christmas 1939." In 1939 Kennedy toured Europe the Soviet Union the Balkans and the Middle East in preparation for his Harvard senior honors thesis. He then toured Berlin where he became involved for the first time in U.S. diplomacy at the outbreak of WWII. Kennedy developed an interest in political philosophy as an upperclassman at Harvard and in 1940 completed his thesis "Appeasement in Munich" regarding the efficacy of British negotiations during the Munich Agreement. The thesis would go on to become a bestseller under the title Why England Slept. In addition to addressing Britain's unwillingness to strengthen its military in the lead-up to World War II the book also called for an Anglo-American alliance against the rising totalitarian powers. In 1956 Kennedy published his second major work Profiles in Courage a volume of short biographies describing acts of bravery and integrity by eight United States Senators. Profiles in Courage went on to become a best-seller and won the Pulitzer Prize for Biography in 1957. Near fine in a very good dust jacket. Housed in a custom half morocco slipcase. A rare and unique association copy. Though he achieved literary acclaim as a dramatist most notably with the timeless children's classic Peter Pan James Matthew Barrie tackled many subjects over the course of his career often grappling with philosophical and psychological topics. The breadth of his intellect is on full display in Courage the inaugural address delivered upon his election as Lord Rector of St. Andrew's University in an effort to inspire the youth before him. Of the daring comments included in the rousing speech he said "I sound to myself as if I were advocating a rebellion though I am really asking for a larger friendship."

Barrington judge antiquary and naturalist who between 1774 and 1776 published several pamphlets on the possibility of reaching the north pole by sea. These together with Barrington's translation of the journal of the Spaniard Francisco Antonio Maurelle's 1775 voyage in search of the passage were included with many of Barrington's other writings in his Miscellanies published in 1781. As in much of his other work Barrington relied heavily—in his arguments favouring the prospect of a northern passage—on accumulating testimonies in this case of seamen and other travellers making reports of ice-free waters in high latitudes.
