A beautiful, hand-signed heirloom edition of Spock on Spock: A Memoir of Growing Up with the Century.

Published in 1989 by the prestigious Franklin Library, this limited first edition is a masterpiece of fine bookmaking, exclusively printed for members of The Signed First Edition Society.

This copy features the authentic, hand-penned signatures of both legendary pioneer pediatrician Dr. Benjamin Spock and his wife/co-author, Mary Morgan, beautifully preserved on the dedicated signature page.

Full, premium genuine leather boards decorated with elaborate 22kt gold gilt stamping on the front, back, and spine.

Distinct hubbed spine with three raised bands and gold accented compartments.

22kt gold-gilded edges on all three sides of the text block.

Vibrantly colored, traditional marbled endpapers.

Specially milled, heavy archival-quality acid-free paper designed to never yellow or degrade over time.

Sewn-in satin ribbon bookmark, smyth-sewn binding for durability, and a specially commissioned frontispiece portrait drawn by Ronald De Felice.

About the author:
Dr. Benjamin Spock was far more than just a pediatrician, he was an American cultural icon whose philosophies permanently reshaped 20th-century family life. His groundbreaking guide, The Common Sense Book of Baby and Child Care (1946), is one of the best-selling books in human history, radically shifting parenting styles away from rigid, authoritarian detachment toward warmth, emotional sensitivity, and flexible love.

Spock on Spock is his ultimate, definitive memoir. Compiled from intimate, personal interviews led by his wife, Mary Morgan, the book reveals Dr. Spock as a master storyteller.

He chronicles a colorful, near-century-long journey, surviving an authoritarian childhood to pioneer humane childcare. Winning an Olympic Gold Medal in rowing (1924), to 1960s political activism, protesting the Vietnam War, and facing federal trials for civil disobedience. And running a passionate campaign for the Presidency of the United States.

This book is a fascinating historical journey through the American century, told by a true hero who dared to alter how humanity raises its children.
