SIGNED by Schlesinger. 1 Page letter on White House Stationary with envelope. Washington. December 30, 1963. (6-1/4 x 9-1/4 inches) Addressed to: "Mr. William L. Blue, The American Embassy, Lisbon Portugal..." Sent "VIA POUCH-UNCLASSIFIED." The Letter Reads "Dear Bill: I appreciate your letter more than I can easily say. The loss is grievous for us all--for his friends, for America, for the world. I know that his courage and purpose will sustain us for the rest of our lives. My own plans remain uncertain. I told President Johnson that I shall stay on for the time being; but in due course I think I had better return to my own work. I do have much in mind the possibility of a book on President Kennedy. Please give Joan my best regards. I hope to see you both before too long. Sincerely Yours..." Great historical piece as it is referencing the book that he did indeed write soon after. It was entitled "1000 Days" and it won the Pulitizer Prize. Publisher: N/A Item Condition : Original fold marks evident. Very nice condition with little to no wear to the letter. Some light wear and soiling to the envelope. Our shipping read more
