Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. I was ten years old the first time I watched this country turn an anniversary in doubt of itself. I am sixty now, and it is happening again.On the Republic's 250th birthday, a veteran of twenty-six years, a career built on watching quietly and reporting honestly, turns that same discipline on the nation he served. To Whom It May Still Concern is a collection of direct-address essays written not to Democrats or Republicans, but to the Republic itself: a testimony from someone who has served under presidents of both parties, under the same Constitution, and now watches an office he once saluted reduced to a brand.These are not partisan essays. They are a warning, and a love letter, from a man who has earned the right to grieve for what he still believes in. Each essay opens on a fragment of a life spent in service and widens into a reckoning: What happened to statesmen? When did net worth become mistaken for leadership? Can a nation still lead the world if it no longer leads itself?Bookended by two Fourths of July, one celebrated at ten, one mourned at sixty, this is a citizen's testimony for anyone who still believes the Republic is worth 250 more years, if it can remember what it was for. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. …
