NIXON, Richard. THE REAL WAR Inscribed to Barry Goldwater. New York:
Warner Books, (1980). First Edition. INSCRIBED and SIGNED by Nixon, as
usual for this book, on a tipped-in publisher's bookplate. This copy,
however, is INSCRIBED to Barry Goldwater. Near Fine in a Very Good
dustwrapper with a closed tear and crease at the rear.
Barry Goldwater, a five-term United States Senator from Arizona
(1953-1965, 1969-1987) and the Republican Party's nominee for President
in the 1964 election, is the politician most often credited for sparking
the resurgence of the American conservative political movement in the
1960s. His landslide defeat to Lyndon Johnson, which also brought down
many other Republican candidates, opened the door for Johnson and a
Congress dominated by Democrats to pass the Great Society programs.
Goldwater returned to the Senate in 1969, but his role as a leader of
the conservative movement had been transferred to Ronald Reagan. In 1974
Goldwater successfully urged President Richard Nixon (whom he called
"the most dishonest individual I have ever met in my life") to resign at
the height of the Watergate scandal. Goldwater retired in 1987 and was
succeeded in office by John McCain. (#019025) $7,500.00
