My American Journey
Powell (1937-2021) was a quintessential American success story. He was born in Harlem to immigrant parents. After school, he joined the Army, rising to the rank of General and serving as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. He was later Secretary of State. In this memoir, Powell conveys his love of country and family with warmth, good humor, and a soldier’s directness. He conveys in his own words, “the greatness of America and the opportunities it offers”. Absorbing history; history with a vision.
Norwalk, Connecticut: Easton Press, 1995. Signed First Edition. 643 pages. Hardcover book bound in genuine leather with raised bands, gilt lettering and highlights. FINE condition. SIGNED by Powell.
