DJ states: His Guiding Principles of Leadership and Negotiation. James C. Humes was a professor of language and leadership at the University of Southern Colorado and was an author and former speechwriter for Presidents Eisenhower, Nixon, Ford, and Reagan. Humes, along with William Safire and Pat Buchanan, is credited for authoring the text on the Apollo 11 lunar plaque. Humes has written many books sharing his extensive knowledge of the modern history and political landscape. Family members said that in an era before the internet, Humes’s encyclopedic knowledge of American history and his meticulously indexed collection of historical quotes and anecdotes, which he maintained in loose-leaf three ring binders, attracted the notice of the Nixon campaign in 1968. On the speech-writing staff of President Nixon, Humes specialized in ceremonial remarks and toasts. Family members said one of the highlights of his service in the White House was when the president asked him to participate in drafting the inscription on the plaque to be left on the moon by the astronauts on the Apollo XI mission in 1969: “Here men from the planet Earth first set foot upon the Moon July 1969, A.D. We came in peace for all mankind.” As a member of the English Speaking Union, he met Winston Churchill, then in his second term as Prime Minister. Churchill’s words to Humes that day, “Young man, study history. In history lie all the secrets of statecraft.”. More

DJ worn, soiled, and small tears/chips. Front DJ flap price clipped. One of a series which studies the creation of a national security policy by focusing on what the policy has been and why. Looks at a number of different perspectives derived from events between 1945 and 1960. Samuel Phillips Huntington (April 18, 1927 – December 24, 2008) was an American political scientist, adviser, and academic. He spent more than half a century at Harvard University, where he was director of Harvard's Center for International Affairs and the Albert J. Weatherhead III University Professor. During the presidency of Jimmy Carter, Huntington was the White House Coordinator of Security Planning for the National Security Council. Huntington is best known for his 1993 theory, the "Clash of Civilizations", of a post–Cold War new world order. He argued that future wars would be fought not between countries, but between cultures, and that Islamic extremism would become the biggest threat to Western domination of the world. Huntington is credited with helping to shape American views on civilian-military relations, political development, and comparative government. According to the Open Syllabus Project, Huntington is the second most frequently cited author on college syllabi for political science courses. Huntington was a member of Harvard's department of government from 1950 until he was denied tenure in 1959. Along with Zbigniew Brzezinski, who had also been denied tenure, he moved to Columbia University in New York. More
