 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."

PRESIDENT WILLIAM J. CLINTON:

"TERRIFIC! IT TRULY IS A FASCINATING STORY,

AND [YOUR BOOK] DEEPENS

MY ALREADY PROFOUND APPRECIATION

FOR THIS

UNIQUE PIECE OF AMERICAN HISTORY"

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."
