EISENHOWER, Dwight D.

Crusade in Europe

First edition. Full blue morocco with the flaming sword device emblazoned on the front board in gilt and silver, in cloth and morocco-tipped slipcase. Spine very slightly sunned, still a lovely, fine copy. D-Day broadside tipped-in Signed by the author, as well as Signed by Eisenhower on the half-title. A highly limited presentation issue, similar to the presentation edition of this title, limited to 25 copies (so stated on the limitation page of the regular limited edition) and bound identically, but in red morocco. This copy has no limitation stated, and was perhaps bound up for Eisenhower for presentation when the 25 copies in red were exhausted. We have handled one identical copy before, that copy presented by Eisenhower as a Christmas gift to his personal lawyer. Rare.
