In den WarenkorbHardcover. Zustand: VG+. 1st Edition. See photos for condition details. Hardcover, beveled blue cloth boards decorated on front and spine. The front board is attractive with only minor spotting but the spine and rear board shows fading, particularly the rear board where it appears another book sat on top for many years. The inte…rnal binding is good, no hinge cracks although there is light pulling in spots. There is a bookplate present, which is opposite the half title page, showing the original owner was Alvey Michael Isanogle of Thurmont Md. Young Alvey eventually became a doctor and Dean of the School of Education, and professor of education (John Hopkins University). After his death, they created the Dr. Alvey Michael Isanogle Memorial Scholarship Fund which was established in 1952. The text pages are overall clean except for a few random smudge marks and fingerprints. Foxing of the paper seems to be mainly limited to the pages around any of the color illustrations, this includes the title page and all pages prior. Both front and rear and pages are clean with no handwriting or markings present. This is an attractive copy with the biggest issue being the fading of the spine and rear cover. There is no publication date listed, but the book was listed as being published in the Dec. 02, 1913 edition of the London Standard newspaper. The last text page also states this particular edition was printed in Bavaria. Gordon Browne (illustrator).

Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. xii, 200, [4] pages. DJ edges somewhat scuffed, small tears to DJ edges. Inscribed by the co-Editor (Alice Hoffman). Includes Foreword by Jimmy Carter and Rosalynn Carter. Also includes Acknowledgments, Introduction, Coda; a…nd Index. Also includes Black and White Illustrations of Nelson H. Cruikshank; The Cruikshank family about 1903; Home Supervisor explaining the Farm and family record book; Farm Security migrant camp; Staff associated with Frank F. Fenton, Director of Organization of the American Federation of Labor about 1946; Nelson speaking on the "Town Meeting of the Air"; Nelson with William Green, President of the American Federation of Labor; Cartoon: "Mr. and Mrs. Cruikshank, May I Present.''; Nelson with President Jimmy Carter; and Baby Bunting. Nelson Hale Cruikshank (June 21, 1902-June 19, 1986) was known nationally in the U. S. as an expert on Social Security, Medicare and policy on aging. He was a Methodist minister, labor union activist and the first director of the Department of Social Security at the AFL-CIO before entering government service in his mid-60s. Cruikshank is considered the most important non-legislator responsible for the enactment of Social Security Disability Insurance in 1956, which provided Social Security benefits to people with disabilities, and of Medicare in 1965. Later, as President Jimmy Carter's adviser and counselor on the aged and as chairman of the Federal Council on Aging, Cruikshank led successful efforts to preserve and expand Social Security benefits for the elderly and people with disabilities. Alice M. Hoffman was an associate professor of labor history at Penn State, where she founded the Labor Archives and Oral History Project. After retiring, she taught oral history methodology at Bryn Mawr College. She was the principal consultant for the Bicentennial Labor History Exhibit for the Philadelphia Council of the AFL-CIO. She was Assistant to the Deputy Secretary for Labor and Industry for the State of Pennsylvania. From 1974 to 1976, Hoffman served as vice-president and president of the Oral History Association. She is president emeritus of the Pennsylvania Labor History Society. Hoffman received the Oral History in the Mid-Atlantic Region's 1985 Forrest Pogue Award for excellence in oral history. Archives of Memory: A Soldier Recalls World War II (1990) was co-authored with Hoffman's husband, a psychologist, war veteran, and interview subject. The book provided a "powerful model" for the utility of interviews and memorial evidence in historical investigations. The Hoffmans also co-edited The Cruikshank Chronicles: Anecdotes, Stories, and Memoirs of a New Deal Liberal, with a foreword by Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter. Derived from a Publishers Weekly article: During a long, distinguished public career, Nelson Cruikshank (1902-1986) was director of the New Deal's migrant labor program, an AFL-CIO organizer-lobbyist, a leading advocate for the extension of the Social Security system and an architect of Medicare. He served as an adviser to Jimmy Carter on aging and campaigned for senior citizens' rights. Compiled from tape-recorded reminiscences by his daughter and son-in-law, this oral autobiography contains serviceable anecdotes. Cruikshank recalls his battles with the American Medical Association and with Teamsters president Dave Beck; he describes his social ministry as a Methodist pastor, which preceded his turn to politics; and tells stories featuring Eleanor Roosevelt, Nelson Rockefeller, Arthur Goldberg, Harry Truman, Joseph McCarthy, John Kennedy and others.

Coda, The Saga of Baby Bunting. Index. Inscribed by the Editor below the Frontis illustration. Inscription reads To Julius who still works to advance m…y fathers goals. Alice Hoffman January 25, 1990. Frontis illustration. Foreword by Jimmy Carter and Rosalynn Carter, Acknowledgments, and an Introduction. Chapters cover the periods 1897-1920; 1921-1925; 1925-1936; 1936-1941; 1942-1976; 1977-1981. Topics covered include New Deal Liberals, U.S. Government Executives, and U.S. Politics and Government. Nelson Cruikshank was a government bureaucrat who forged a career in the labor movement when it was a genuine movement of the exploited and unorganized. In those heroic days, he helped to put the New Deal into action. His later work on behalf on Social Security, and with the National Council on Senior Citizens, placed him as personal advisor to President Jimmy Carter. Alice M. Hoffman was the Director, Pennsylvania Dislocated Worker Unit, Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry, and Howard S. Hoffman was Professor of Psychology at Bryn Mawr College. Nelson Hale Cruikshank (June 21, 1902 - June 19, 1986) was known nationally in the United States as an expert on Social Security, Medicare and policy on aging. He was a Methodist minister, labor union activist and the first director of the Department of Social Security at the AFL-CIO before entering government service in his mid-60s. Cruikshank is considered the most important non-legislator responsible for the enactment of Social Security Disability Insurance in 1956, which for the first time provided Social Security benefits to people with disabilities, and of Medicare in 1965. Later, as President Jimmy Carter's adviser and counselor on the aged and as chairman of the Federal Council on Aging, Cruikshank led successful efforts to preserve and expand Social Security benefits for the elderly and people with disabilities. Cruikshank began working for the American Federation of Labor (AFL) in 1944 as the director of social insurance after working as a lobbyist. He worked closely with AFL-CIO Secretary-Treasurer George Meany, and became influenced by Meany's internationalist outlook. Cruikshank was appointed to the National Advisory Council on Social Security Financing in 1947, where he became the AFL's point-man on old age and health issues. He earned a national reputation as labor's persuasive spokesman on these issues. He lobbied strenuously for national health care, repeatedly taking on its principal opponent, the American Medical Association (AMA), in the print media and on widely aired radio debates. Cruikshank left the AFL in 1951 and returned to government service. He became director of the European Labor Division of the Office of the Special Representative of the President for Europe, which was part of the Marshall Plan, but returned to the United States after just a year. Cruikshank returned to the AFL in 1953. He performed various duties for Meany, who was then running what would become the AFL-CIO behind the scenes as president William Green's health declined. In 1955 Cruikshank was named director of the AFL's newly formed Department of Social Security. He continued in that role after the AFL and Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO) merged in 1955. Cruikshank used his position to protect and enhance Social Security as part of the union movement's commitment to a comprehensive legislative package of federal social insurance programs, including national health care insurance and income supports for the poor, people with disabilities and the unemployed. He created the AFL-CIO's Social Security Advisory Committee as a political group to press for higher and expanded benefits. In 1956, Cruikshank's efforts were instrumental in winning passage of the Social Security Disability Insurance amendments, which provided income assistance to permanently disabled workers.
