JOURNEY TO THE FAR PACIFIC 1952 Dewey Account 1st Ed HC DJ VG Photos

Description: 1952 1st EDITION JOURNEY TO THE FAR PACIFIC This listing features a fascinating memoir by the former Governor of New York, Thomas E. Dewey (1902-1971). Dewey was a busy guy. He served as the 47th governor of New York from 1943 to 1954 and before that, he was a New York City prosecutor and District Attorney. Dewey was relentless in his effort to curb the power of the American Mafia and of organized crime in general. Most famously, he successfully prosecuted Mafioso kingpin Charles "Lucky" Luciano on charges of forced prostitution in 1936. He was the Republican Party's nominee for President of the United States in 1944 and 1948, losing the latter to Harry S. Truman in a major upset. He later toured ’the Orient’ while 5 Communist revolutions were raging in Korea, Indo-China, the Philippines, ‘Malaya’ and Indonesia. “Journey to the Far Pacific” is his eyewitness account of that pivotal time in World history. One has to wonder how history may have been different if he had defeated Truman for President. This is the 1952 First Edition, published by Doubleday & Company, New York. The book is in great condition, the dust jacket, not so much but it is present. It consists of 335 pages, including personal photos, an Introduction, Contents, and timely maps on both endsheets. It measures 8 1/2 inches tall by 5 3/4 inches wide by 1 1/4 inches thick. No militaria library should be without this book, or anyone interested in world history. Please inspect all of the photos to see exactly what you will receive. For more about Thomas E.
