HMS RESOLUTE
AND HOW SHE PREVENTED A WAR"
BY ELIZABETH R. MATTHEWS

PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH:
"THE STORY OF THE SHIP REPRESENTS
THE SPECIAL RELATIONSHIP
AMERICA SHARES WITH
GREAT BRITAIN, AND MY TIME WORKING AT
THE RESOLUTE DESK
REMINDS ME OF THE
RICH HISTORY OF OUR NATION.
YOUR WORK TO CHRONICLE BOTH
IS
AN IMPORTANT CONTRIBUTION
FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS."

FORMER AMBASSADOR BOB TUTTLE ON THE RESOLUTE DESK:
"[YOUR BOOK] IS OF SPECIAL INTEREST TO ME AS I SAT NEXT TO
THE RESOLUTE DESK
AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK FROM
FEBRUARY 1985 UNTIL JANUARY 1989
WHEN I HAD MY WEEKLY PERSONAL MEETINGS WITH
PRESIDENT REAGAN.
IT IS A BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF FURNITURE,
AND IT WILL BE GREAT FUN TO DISCOVER ITS ORIGINS."
