First Edition of Tom Wolfe's I am Charlotte Simmons; From the library of Secretary of State Madeleine Albright
WOLFE, Tom [Madeleine Albright].
I Am Charlotte Simmons.
New York: Farrar, Strauss and Giroux, 2004.
First edition of this "hilarious, exclamation-point filled novel" (John Freeman). Octavo, original half cloth, bookplate to the front pastedown from “The Private Collection of Secretary Madeleine K. Albright." The collector, 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. Jacket design by Susan Mitchell.
