This near fine hardcover is like new—tight, square, unmarked, with crisp, unread pages. The dust jacket is clean, and the grey cloth boards feature silver spine lettering. Posterity: Letters of Great Americans to Their Children by Dorie McCullough Lawson is a moving 2004 collection of letters from notable Americans to their children. Curated by Lawson, daughter of historian David McCullough, the book offers intimate insights into the private lives and values of historical figures. Praised for its concept and curation, this Doubleday edition is now out of print.
