First edition of “this compelling personal story” (The New York Times). Octavo, original boards, illustrated. Presentation copy, lengthily and warmly inscribed by the author on the title page, "Susan- You are a lovely lady to give me so much time and consideration. Keep the faith and I'll keep my promises Joe Biden 12.20.07." Fine in a near fine price-clipped dust jacket.
Vice President Joe Biden has both witnessed and participated in a momentous epoch of American history. In Promises to Keep, Joe Biden reveals what these experiences taught him about himself, his colleagues, and the institutions of government.
With his customary candor and wit, Biden movingly recounts growing up in a staunchly Catholic multigenerational household in Scranton, Pennsylvania, and Wilmington, Delaware; overcoming personal tragedy, life-threatening illness, and career setbacks; his relationships with presidents, with world leaders, and with lawmakers on both sides of the aisle; and his leadership of powerful Senate committees. “A ripping good read . . . Biden is a master storyteller and has stories worth telling" (The Christian Science Monitor).
