Read My Pins: Stories from a Diplomat's Jewel Box Tapa dura - 2009
de Madeleine Albright
Resumen
‘“Jewelry isn’t ordinarily a tool of political persuasion, but in this beautiful book, Madeleine Albright, American ambassador to the United Nations and then the nation’s first female secretary of state, tells the compelling story of how these small objects became part of her ‘personal diplomatic arsenal.’” — The Chicago Tribune From New York Times bestselling author and former secretary of state Madeleine Albright, Read My Pins is a story and celebration of how one woman’s jewelry collection was used to make diplomatic history. Part illustrated memoir, part social history, Read My Pins provides an intimate look at Albright’s life through the brooches she wore. Her collection is both international and democratic—dime-store pins share pride of place with designer creations and family heirlooms. Included are the antique eagle purchased to celebrate Albright’s appointment as secretary of state, the zebra pin she wore when meeting Nelson Mandela, and the Valentine’s Day heart forged by Albright’s five-year-old daughter. Read My Pins features more than 200 photographs, along with compelling and often humorous stories about jewelry, global politics, and the life of one of America’s most accomplished and fascinating diplomats.’ - from publisher

Descripción:
A book as much about jewelry as about politics. Filled with full-color photographs of Albright's extensive collection of pins, along with stories about the messages those pins were meant to transmit. A very small amount of wear along the lower edges of the book and dust jacket. Rather minor. The pages are clean, tight and unmarked. Dust jacket unclipped. Original price -- $45.00. This book will ship at over two pounds. Excess shipping costs are included in the list price.
