The eyes of the world are upon you." Of those 1426 copies the first 25 were bound in full red morocco leather and put aside for Eisenhower's personal use. This is Copy #4 and in addition to having the SIGNED order is INSCRIBED by the President to his brother on the limitation page: "For my brother Edgar/In the hope that herein/he may find some small/thing to compensate him for/all the trouble caused him/by the soldier member of the/family with lasting devotion./Ike." Edgar N. Eisenhower 19 January 1889 - 12 July 1971 was a lawyer and the older brother of Dwight D. Eisenhower. The two brothers were known as Big Ike Edgar and Little Ike Dwight with Edgar eventually dropping the nickname. While Dwight's golf game would garner a great deal of attention and he became a most important person in the transition of golf from play to a sport Edgar was the much better golfer winning tournaments over a 20 year span. Edgar was known as a shoot-from-the-hip ultraconservative and a vocal critic of his brother the president. Edgar criticized Ike's budgets policies and judicial nominations. When the press asked Ike about the criticism he smiled and responded that Edgar had been "criticizing me since I was 5 years old." Ike's touching inscription in this book in just a few words perfectly captures their relationship. Doubleday & Company, Inc. hardcover

Madden.” Padded brown full calf gilt decorated borders front cover silk pastedowns minor scuffing edgewear still a VG exemplar. This previously unknown album captures the brief moments of leisure onboard the USS Helena CA-75 of President-Elect Dwight D. Eisenhower following his historic mission to the Korean War battlefront in between shipboard foreign policy meetings with his proposed cabinet in December 1952. On October 24 1952 when General Dwight D. Eisenhower was leading in the polls as Republican candidate for President while serving as the Supreme Commander of NATO Ike announced he would “forego the diversions of politics and concentrate on the job of ending the Korean War. . . I shall go to Korea.” Nearing the end of 1952 the brutal War was entering its’ third winter U.S. casualties were over 25000 battlefield dead and the United States had been at War for eight of the past 11 years and he set himself the task of ending the War. Despite President Truman terming the trip as a gimmick Eisenhower secretly left the U.S. Nov. 29 1952 accompanied by Chief of Staff Omar Bradley and spent Dec. 2 1952 - Dec. 6 1952 viewing conditions on the ground wearing a fur-lined hat thermos boots and eating and interviewing enlisted soldiers and officers with his son John Eisenhower Omar Bradley and Admiral Radford. He quickly realized that the massive offensive being pushed by President Rhee would only result in another status quo and obliquely threatened China with possible Nuclear War as well as convincing Rhee that they would have to accept a division of Korea and find a solution for ceasefire. The album opens with signed photo of Eisenhower standing on the deck of the USS Helena followed by others including another signed image depicting him with his future cabinet including Charles Erwin Wilson future Secretary of Defense John Foster Dulles future Secretary of State Attorney General Herbert Brownell Secretary of the Treasury George M. Humphrey and Secretary of the Interior Douglas James McKay former Oregon governor along with Admiral Arthur Radford and Captain James E. Cohn commander of the Helena. One of Ike’s favorite pastimes was trapshooting and four of the large 8 x 9 in. photos and over 20 depict him in this sequence of holding and shooting the shotgun as well as competing with others in the entourage. A few of the sequence Naval photographs depict him walking and talking with photojournalists interacting with USS Helena sailors and others. The USS Helena had been relieved of her normal duties Nov. 24 1952 for special mission carrying President-Elect Eisenhower along with other dignitaries and after leaving Yokosuka Harbor Japan she sailed to Guam by Dec. 3 where she picked up the party delivered onboard Ike’s preferred Navy Helicopter the Sikorsky H-5 Dragonfly HO3S-1 UP 39 Last Chance Taxi IV depicted in several photos here. The President-Elect Eisenhower’s delegation disembarked Dec. 11 1952 in Honolulu T.H.The shipboard Navy photographers were John W. Wahlborg and Clarence Wayne Newland 1924-2009 who used two of these images for the 1953 USS Helena cruise book see p. 76 which have also included here many different photographs of the USS Helena at Yokosuka Japan with two of the images indicating their visit coincided with the flight operations of the Essex-Class carrier USS Oriskany CVA-34 depicted in photos with her full complement of Corsairs and folded wings on deck as well as an unidentified Carrier. Many of the photos also depict the UP 39 Sikorsky helicopter flying across the harbor and onto the deck of the USS Helena with giant US Flag painted on the deck. Following their cruise to Honolulu the USS Helena subsequently traveled to Long Beach CA for celebrations and then was a featured guest at the Portland Oregon Rose Festival festivities in May-June 1953. The trip was especially significant in that Eisenhower was able to convince both President Rhee and Secretary of State Dulles that compromise was necessary and after over 7000 additional casualties approximately the same amount as suffered by U.S. Armed Forces in post-9/11 war operations including Iraq and Afghanistan over 25 years the armistice was signed under the Eisenhower administration July 27 1953.
