Melvin Robert "Bom" Laird[2] (September 1, 1922 - November 16, 2016) was an American politician, writer and statesman.[3] He was a U.S. congressman from Wisconsin from 1953 to 1969 before serving as Secretary of Defense from 1969 to 1973 under President Richard Nixon. Laird was instrumental in forming the administration's policy of withdrawing U.S. soldiers from the Vietnam War; he coined the expression "Vietnamization," referring to the process of transferring more responsibility for combat to the South Vietnamese forces. First elected in 1952, Laird was the last surviving Representative elected to the 83rd Congress at the time of his death. Congressman Laird in this work has produced a clear and sober analysis of the foreign and military problems which trouble all Americans, regardless of their position or politics. A House Divided looks ahead to the time when American leaders will again base their strategy on our heritage and values in order to meet successfully the crisis of a world "half slave and half free." Why the strategy of initiative is the only way to peace with freedom is cogently argued by Congressman Laird. Robert Gernand (Jacket design) (illustrator). …

Rare large Official White House color photograph of President Richard Nixon and his cabinet, signed by the President, Vice President Gerald Ford, and sixteen members of his cabinet. The full-length group portrait, taken by a White House photographer, shows the President and his cabinet standing in a row in the Oval Office, each having signed vertically in the image above his or her portrait. Those signing are President Richard Nixon, Vice President Gerald Ford, Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, Secretary of the Treasury George Shultz, Secretary of Defense James R. Schlesinger, Attorney General William B. Saxbe, Secretary of the Interior Rogers Morton, Secretary of Agriculture Earl Butz, Secretary of Commerce Frederick B. Dent, Secretary of Labor Peter J. Brennan, Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare Caspar Weinberger, Secretary of Housing and Urban Development James T. Lynn, Secretary of Transportation Claude Brinegar, Budget Director Roy Ash, Counselors Bryce Harlow, Melvin Laird, and Anne L. Armstrong, and United Nations Ambassador John A. Scali, lacking only the signature of Postmaster General E. T. Klassen. Triple matted and framed. In near fine condition with some fading to the signatures of Ford, Dent, and Ash, some fading to the image, a few scattered minor creases. The entire piece measures 21 inches by 17 inches. A remarkable record of the Nixon cabinet in the final months of his presidency, uniting the signatures of the president, his future successor, and his cabinet on a single official White House image. Richard Nixon (1913-1994), the thirty-seventh President of the United States, assembled this cabinet in the final, embattled period of his presidency, as the Watergate scandal closed in around him. The photograph is doubly historic for including Vice President Gerald Ford, whom Nixon had appointed to replace the disgraced Spiro Agnew in December 1973 and who would succeed to the presidency upon Nixon?s resignation in August 1974, becoming the only person ever to serve as president without having been elected to either the presidency or the vice presidency. Among the signers are Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, Secretary of Defense James Schlesinger, and Treasury Secretary George Shultz, figures who shaped American policy through one of the most turbulent chapters in the nation?s modern history.…
