The First Edition of “Love is Forever” by Irving Stone is not in the best shape in some places but is readable throughout the book.  The pics pretty well tell the story of its overall condition. It looks like Irving Stone MAY have signed it inside the cover page but can't tell for sure because of the sticker on top.  It is a story of Mary Todd and Abraham Lincoln written in 1954 and published by Doubleday and Company.

This is a rare copy of “The Ladies of the White House” by Laura Holloway, a President's wife point of view, written in 1882.  As the pics show the cover is missing and a page disconnected from the book with someone's signature on it (not sure who it is).  The rest of the book is very readable with the pics in very good view. Great book for a filler and good to read (if it does not fall apart).
