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. In very good condition.
Ernest Hemingway's first collection of short stories, published in 1925 by Boni & Liveright, contained fourteen short stories, including "Indian Camp" and "Big Two-Hearted River," two of his best-known Nick Adams stories. With themes of alienation, loss, grief, and separation, 'In Our Time' continued the work Hemingway began with the twelve vignettes and had published in Paris in 1924 as an addition to Ezra Pound's six prose vignettes published in the 1923 edition of 'The Little Review.'
