The Private Collection of Secretary Madeleine K. Albright

In this autobiographical account, Secretary Albright explored her family history and childhood experiences, which included the Nazi invasion of Prague, alongside her highly researched account of the circumstances that led up to World War II and its aftermath in Central Europe: "What fascinates me—and what serves as a central theme of this book—is why we make the choices we do... My search for an answer to these questions begins with a look back—to the time and place of my earliest years" (p.10).

In original binding (condition generally very good).

Provenance: Secretary Madeleine K. Albright, with bookplate.
