Marina and Lee

  • SIGNED Cloth
  • New York: Harper & Row, 1977
By Priscilla Johnson McMillan
New York: Harper & Row, 1977. Cloth. Fine/Near Fine. A remarkable copy of this examination of the relationship of Marina and Lee Oswald, authored by the only person --Priscilla Johnson McMillan-- who demonstrably knew both JFK (from his years as a young Senator) and Lee Harvey Oswald (while in Russia). INSCRIBED BY BOTH MARINA OSWALD (on the first blank endpaper) AND PRISCILLA MCMILLAN (on the tile page) TO THE SAME JFK RESEARCHER. IN MARINA OSWALD'S CASE, THE INSCRIPTION HINTS AT THE DIFFERENCES (AND EVENTUAL FALLING OUT) SHE AND THE AUTHOR WOULD HAVE OVER THE BOOK'S CONCLUSIONS AND IN PRISCILLA MCMILLAN'S CASE, THE INSCRIPTION IS WARM AND GENEROUS. A gorgeous copy to boot of the October 1977 stated 1st edition (with the correct number bar following the statement). Clean and Fine in a crisp, price-intact, Near Fine to Fine dustjacket. Thick octavo, a number of crisp black-and-white photos accompanying McMillan's text. Truly a collector's copy, in all-but-pristine condition and arguably one-of-a-kind, with the inscriptions of both Marina Oswald and Priscilla McMillan.
