Comments: Book is inscribed from President Eisenhower to his brother, Edgar N. Eisenhower. Edgar was the older brother of President Eisenhower and a practicing lawyer in Kansas. He was known to be an ultraconservative, often at odds with his brothers centrist views. He was a frequent guest at the White House and while they may have disagreed, he was always held in regard by his younger brother.
