(No. 6441 )  Morris, Robert. DISARMAMENT: WEAPON OF CONQUEST (SIGNED).
New York: Bookmailer, (1963). First printing, Full cloth, Octavo, [viii], 
148 pages. Near Fine in a Very Good Dust Jacket, Jacket in Mylar protector.
      Robert Morris, who is herein quite critical of John F. Kennedy's 
foreign policies, is linked by many researchers to the JFK assassination. 
Thus, the inscription in this copy of his book is intriguing. Recall that 
JFK was killed November 22, 1963 in Dallas. The inscription reads: "To Olive 
Parsons, a gallant woman / Robert Morris / Christmas 1963 / Dallas Texas." 
Additionally there is a gift tag taped to the front free endpaper, penned in 
a different hand, which reads: "To / Olive + all / with interest / in our 
cause! / From / Hetty / + / Susu[?] XX". Morris twice served as chief 
counsel to the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Internal Security in the 
1950s, was thought to be more "McCarthyesque" than Joe McCarthy himself, was 
president of the right wing Defenders of American Liberty in Dallas, etc. He 
lived a few doors from Jack Ruby. As to the content of the book, it 
discusses the Rostow Memorandum, Khrushchev's duplicity in the Cuban Missile 
Crisis, Laos, etc. Bound in orange cloth over boards with dark brown spine 
and upper board lettering, minor edge wear. Jacket has a few light edge rubs 
and short tears....... $100.00
