Catalogue Note: Nicholas deBelleville Katzenbach served as Attorney General and Under Secretary of State in the Johnson administration. He was best known for being a primary participant in one of the most famous incidents of the Civil Rights struggle. On June 11, 1963, Deputy Attorney General Katzenbach accompanied by federal marshals and the Alabama National Guard confronted Alabama Governor George Wallace in front of Foster Auditorium at the University of Alabama during Wallace's infamous "Stand in the Schoolhouse Door", an effort to stop desegregation of that institution. Under direct orders from President John F. Kennedy, Katzenbach and the National Guard forced Wallace to step aside and allow two African-American students to register for classes at the University.

One excellent, the other fair with fading and soiling. Map and letter excellent.
